One little side note with new aircraft, I know KR guys are cheap but it may be
a good investment to PAY to have an actual pitot static test performed by a
licensed shop to make sure your system is operating properly.

While not being a "calibrated" test / setup the following would at least
indicate your ASI is working. That should give you an indication of the
airspeed to use on approach after doing a power off straight ahead stall
at altitude.

While not "dis"ing Mark for his 60 or so high speed taxi runs I have
pointed out in the past that anything beyond proving the aircraft is
controllable is adding additional risk and is more for pilot comfort
level that proving anything about the airplane. You might want to get
comfortable in something other than in an airplane that has never flown
before if possible. We each have our own level of comfort and self
determined ability. Do your own thing and accept the results.
