kewassa's route is not bad, but i find i do it a bit different.
i get to a position still on the runway, with the rearm pad off the wing (maybe 2-3 plane width's away)
at a full stop i use wheel brakes to piviot my plane on it's own position, like swiveling it to the heading i want. then throttle up straight onto the pad, with just 1 wheel on the pad (IIRC that's all you really need).
