Find checklists online or in some rv books, but they will not be exactly specific for you. Add or subtract items often for the fisrst few trips. We store ours in plastic cover sheets both the set up and ready to move list this way and use an erasable marker each time, ticking items off as we complete them. Then erase and start over next time.
After using them several times I organized them in the order we actually do the items, first things first, less important next, etc. your owners manual will likely have some items that should be done before others, particularly when slide outs should be opened/retracted and when leveling jacks should be deployed/retracted. Different model rv’s have different procedures.
BTW, the suggestion to camp in your driveway for several days first is a great idea. We did that for several days and only allowed in house trips for potty. You will learn more that way than you will ever learn online asking others. We then took a short trip maybe 20 miles away and camped a few days.
Crawl before you walk, walk before you run, etc. you have just spend a very significant amount of money, practice so you can enjoy your investment to the fullest.
