You can get all technical and memorise how the governor and all that magic works. Just need to know when increasing power its Mix-Pitch-MP and when decreasing power its MP-Pitch-Mix in order to avoid doing damage.
Learn the power settings.
Learn the limits for gear extension and operation.
Learn the emergency extension procedure.
And for the 182RG - learn where the hydraulic reservoir is, how to find out the qty and how the refill the bugger.
Apart from that it's pretty straight forward and will take no time at all to master.
