i go inverted with an s-filter and usually do something like:
15g coffee (a little coarser than espresso, like sand grains)
100g water (usually 197-203�F) over 20-30 seconds and let it hang out for another 10 seconds while stirring
110g water over another 30ish seconds (keep stirring)
cap at 1:10ish, invert while not causing an explosion, and press

just checked on the aeropress championship recipes at https://www.worldaeropresschampionship.com/hall-of-fame, which are a great set to try, and lol they're all like twice as much coffee as i use. getting old and sensitive

also lol, from their past championships section:

Bhodi: Dec 9, 2007; Oh, it's just a cat.; Pillbug

didn't see anyone mention it yet but coffee crazy youtube personality james hoffmann did a series on the aeropress recently, the tl;drs that I remember from his testing are

pre-rinsing your filter doesn't change the flavor
pre-heating the aeropress doesn't change the flavor because it's well insulated there's less than a degree of temp drop
pushing through the hiss versus until the hiss doesn't change the flavor
inverted versus standard doesn't change the flavor but he personally finds inverted scary because presumably the plunger fell out once and near-boiling water and coffee grounds went everywhere and now he's traumatized
pushing water through too fast causes channels to form and all the water will run through those channels and the coffee will taste underextracted, thin or sour so take your time, ~20s+
there's a temperature hump where if brewed coffee will taste bitter. it's higher for dark roast and lower for light and it's between 80-90C so best brews are either higher or lower than that, he prefers going higher like 95ish but that's why both the aeropress directions and world championships prefer lower
steeping for ~2m pays huge flavor dividends but has big diminishing returns after that to the point that 3m+ steeps all taste the same (not bad, just wastes time)
swirl once after steeping and wait 30s to get the coffee to settle to the bottom
finding the right grind is important, aeropress prefers on the finer end and it varies widely per bean (obviously) so after adjusting for water temp start adjusting the grind, bitter = make larger, sour/thin = make smaller

I tried once not inverted because of this video but then was instantly reminded of the time I hit the filter with the spoon I was stirring with and then it all just went into the cup and was ruined. I'm going to stick to inverted because I think it's easier than the normal way.

the paddle it comes with is just the right length to not hit the filter though im assuming you may not have paddle access
