What is the default recovery model setting for "model"?
Should it be set to simple or full? I notice the master, msdb, and tempdb are set to simple, model is set to full.

The default is full. Whatever you want your newly created user databases to use is what model should be using. In prod, we use full. In dev/test/non-prod, we use simple.
