Flaps up or down for a takeoff?
The first point is to understand what flaps do. They create more wing surface area when they are extended, therefor creating more lift at slow speeds. TAKEOFF: Depending on the aircraft you are flying, may be a Cessna 170 or a 747, it all depends on the manufacturer of the aircraft. They may say at when you have X weight, you need no flaps but when you have a completely heavier weight, you may need flaps. *do not use this information for real flying.
