Tuning queries for 3" drone

I was tuning my 3” drone and going through the Ardupilot tuning page, and in PID Control Initial Setup the value for INS_GYRO_FILTER is given for 5” and above drones, what should be the value for a 3” drone?
I’m adding an image for reference

The Initial Parameter Setup tab (aka Mission Planner Helper) under Mandatory Hardware will set these up automatically for you if you input the propeller diameter and the number of cells in series.

Also expect with a 3”, depending on how much power the quad has you may need to tune down the PIDs. Even if the quad is flying “okay” listen for warbling sound or hot motors. Keep the first flight short.
