    I guess it will be what you are comfortable with.
    For me, everything down and as soon as the nose is falling over I lift the trim tabs all the way up since they take some time and I am trimming the engine up to where I run it at the same time. I don't have any blow out nor does the nose dive at all while falling over.
    I think everyone finds there own "nitch."
