In level flight it should be around 2500RPM or so down low, but you'll need to experiment a little to really dial it in, you should also be watching your boost gauge as you can overboost the engine when you dial the RPM down. Same with diving, you're really got to watch the boost and RPM's. (and of course watch the speed as preserving the engine won't help much if you rip the wings off)
I'm still learning too. I think half the fun is learning how to get the most out of these planes.
