Normal procedure with my 2 operators is clean up at 1000'R normal or OEI unless different procedure specified in the go-around instructions. Taking the worst case, OEI go-around from baulked landing, Flap raised to standard go-around position (maybe 5 seconds), gear raised. Depending on type, small acceleration and raising of flap to special OEI setting to ensure adequate climb. If this still would not give you correct climb angle, then your performance max lndng weight would have been adjusted down. All you have to do is concentrate on flying the correct procedure knowing that someone has done the paperwork beforehand to ensure you will meet climb requirements! The proc you found states a minimum clean up of 820' and 6 nms, all well within design capabilities. So what you do in real life is 'follow instructions unless different procedure specified'! The 'FMS default altitude' is whatever your operator suggests as a default. Many airlines use 1000'R
