Well it was awesome! Thanks to the people at Graves R/C hobbies in Orlando! They help me fire it up for the first time so I didn't kill myself.
I have 3 tanks through it now. 2 on my own.

Question. How do I know when I've leaned it enough?
Where are these long flight times everyones talking about? I'm about 8 minutes hovering.

8 minutes hovering is about right! Hovering burns more juice and you can lean up abit later and get maybe 10... Don't feel bad man... ENJOY IT

I think it's a combination of three, sound, smoke and temp - most people say when you put your finger on the bottom of the engine and don't burn your finger in 5 secounds then you're good.

You have alot of reading in front of you, but start with the manual if you are using the OS hyper then thats a good place to start.

I get 12mins of flight time using the Cool Power 30% and i'm smokin.
