Default RE: Trim for level flight throttle settings

I guess it's a personal thing. I set mine where the airplane feels like it has a comfortable "cruise" speed. Usually about 3/4 throttle, maybe a little more or less, depending on the aircraft. With the LT40 probably about 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. What speed do you most feel comfortable flying it? That's a good spot to start. You can always change it later as your experience grows.
