Beginner Pilot Checklist

[Gibbs]

I have a Spark arriving next week. I have never flown a drone before. I have been searching around the interwebs for a beginner pilot checklist for a DJI Spark. I have seen them before for other flying thingys. Does anyone have anything like this?
1. Things to do before first launch
2. Steps for a successful first flight including safety checks.
3. Beginner maneuvers
4. Intermediate maneuvers
5. Advanced maneuvers
Thanks!

Most critical when you first receive Spark is to find an open grassy field. Do compass calibration. Do this only once unless asked by the app.
If you are going to practice, start in an open field free trees and distractions such as dogs, kids and annoying adults.
