Basic Maneuver Guidelines

Does anyone have a list of guidelines for basic maneuvers in a piper warrior? One that would include:
- RPM
- Angle's the plane faces
- Expected Speed in Knots
- Whether Flaps are deployed or not
For maneuvers such as:
- The different types of climbing
- The different types of descending
- The different types of turning (in regards to the angle of bank)

I just want to know these maneuvers really well so I don't waste time relearning them while doing a crosswind and downwind circuit.

Climbing
Max angle -full throttle - 68kts
Max rate - full throttle - 75 kts
cruise - full throttle - 80 kts

Descending
cruise - 2100rpm - 500fpm
approach - 1800rpm
1st flap 75-80 kts
2nd flap 70-75 kts
3rd flap 65-70 kts
Glide speed - 74 kts

Turning
medium turn - 30°
steep turn - 60° (need a lot of back-pressure to hold altitude)

cruise
2450rpm
MAX 2400rpm below 2000'

Is that what you were after? I wasn't 100% sure what you wanted through your post!
