Stall speed with flap setting varies with type.

The first way to answer the question is look in the manual. The second way is to go up to a safe height and try. Given you should stay comfortable with all the main stalls in your aeroplane anyhow, if you're not already doing that - you should.

I tend to prefer a 3-pointer, but otherwise agree completely with Chuck.
