FWIW, this is the setup I had on mine when flying it... it was very slightly nose heavy, which made for some perfect 3D IMHO.

EME 60cc engine with side dump muffler
Hitec 7955TG Servos
32oz fuel tank

Made some battery trays like this:

Also, when I originally got the plane, it had a DLE55 on the nose, same servos and tank mentioned above. Here was battery placement:

If I remember right, I measured the correct distance back at the wing tips on both sides and then run a string across from one side to the other and the it is right near the center of the carbon tube. I think! It sucks getting old! lol

I do it the "Ben" way, since this is a very forgiving airframe. Put everything in the middle or recommended position, fly it, then adjust batteries, CG etc. for your flying style.

Works every time! :)
