The general procedure I go through when flying a new F5J model for the first time to insure a successful and safe flight.

Maiden Pre Flight Check List-

-Proper CG.
-Fully charged Transmitter and Flight batteries.
-Verify all surfaces moving the right directions.
-Verify trims in all flight modes are zero.
-Verify all control surfaces hooked up and are solid.
-Verify correct fail safe settings.
-Range Test

Maiden Flight-

-Initial trimming of all surfaces in all flight modes.
-Verify CG feels in proper range.
-Tune flap to elevator compensation.
-Tune Rudder/Aileron Mix if needed. 

After Successful Maiden Flight-

-Continue tuning mixes and camber settings as needed.
