Default GPro Parameters - UPDATE!

I am setting up my new Gpro for my 450L Dominator, which I think is very straight forward. However, I would like more information on Parameter Settings. I plan to give the Heli a test flight with default Parameter settings. If I find it to be too much to handle I will apply the beginner settings. What I'd really like to have is a description of each individual parameter and the affect it would have on flight characteristics. Does anyone know where I can find this information? The manual and videos online do a good job of describing Setup, which has been very helpful, but falls short on Parameters.

*** UPDATE ***
While I still cannot find any written documentation, I did see that the Windows GPro Setup Application provides very useful information that is not available on the iOS setup software. The Windows version of the setup software has an informational popup that is displayed as you hover over each parameter. I still wouldn't mind having a handy tip sheet to use when making parameter adjustments at the field with my iPhone, but its a lot better than nothing.

I would start with default settings. They seem to work quite well. If you are concerned about heli being too responsive, try beginner settings or add some expotential in your transmitter on aile and elev. Otherwise I believe you will like it once airborne. As with any flybarless controller, DO NOT spend too much time with heli spooled up and skids touching the ground or add cyclic input while on ground or may have tendency to tip on lift off.

Sound advice, thank you. I will follow your recommendations for sure.

Hovering over the pc software parameters doesn't give you enough time to read the 'flyer' so you have to keep hovering back over it' bit of a pain really assuming its not just my pc.
