Well for starters
Pitch curve
Normal: 45 47 50 75 100
IU1: 0 25 50 75 100
Throttle Curve
Normal: 0 40 75 75 75 (or something similar)
IU1: 80 80 75 80 80 (or something similar)
As for d/r and expo you'll have to play around with those. Since I always confuse those numbers I'll let someone else chime in since the radio is at the house.

The Throttle and Pitch Curves that Matthias posted are awesome for beginners. Very tame and no surprises. We recommend those settings for each beginner that asks.
As far as the Dual Rates and Expo...consult your manual for your particular model as a starting point. You will find that you'll probably change these numbers so that they suit your flying style. When I started with my 450, I had my aileron and elevator at 80% Dual Rate and my rudder at 100% Dual Rate. I like the faster tail response, so I left that at 100%. As for the Expo, I had 15% on my aileron and elevator and 0% on my Rudder. Eventually, I ended up going to 10% Expo on my aileron and elevator because I was getting better and still 0% on my rudder.
Let me ask you this? Do you know "exactly" what the Dual Rates and Expo do?

here is the article:
Rc-Help - Dual Rates (D/R) & Exponential (Expo) Explained
also there are two settings for each switch, an off position setting and an on position setting. I would set the higher value settings in the off position and lower value settings in the on position.
