If I am the custodial parent (100% custody), can I move out of state with my child? Do I have to give any type of legal notice?

If you've been living in California for six months, and you move, if Dad files a case to specify his custody/visitation rights, it'll be heard in California. If you move, and conceal your daughter's new address, he might even be able to file a parental kidnapping complaint, and you'd be at risk of being arrested. I strongly suggest that you speak to a qualified experienced family law attorney BEFORE you move, so as to minimize the risk that you'll get dragged back to California.
