Default ??? before first attempt

I'm about ready to try trying to operate a CP2 a little bit for the first
time, beginning with trying not to wreck it in a one foot square on the
ground[&o] Before making an attempt there are some questions I hope
people can help me with.

The main blades were loose for shipping, so is there a specific way of
lining them up with each other before tightening? It has wood blades and
the manual says to adjust their pitch control links. Do the sockets just
pop off and on the ball at the joint? If so, how many times can you do
that? How to align the paddles on top?

The controller looks like this one:

I want to be in mode 2 with the throttle on the left. Is that controlled
by the switches in the bottom right corner of the controller? If not,
what are they for? This one came set like the ones in the pic.

When the heli is powered off, does it hurt anything to move servo arms
or will all that re-set at power-up?

Thanks!
David
