Map management

Tks for the reply
So if for instance i want to start a climb i raise the collective, the blade picth increases, the aoa increases, more lift, the rotorcraft climbs.
As the lift increases so does the induced drag, therefore the rrpm's tend to drop, the governor kicks in and increases map to maintain the proper rpm's. How far do i pull the collective? Until my roc is achieved? And the throttle do i use it to fine tune the required map of 23? And then i use the cyclic to pitch for the desired speed of 60 kias, am i correct?

Tks
