Default CG and Throws for an ACE 4-40 Biplane

Hi everybody,

I am please to say that a club member sold me an Ace 4-40 biplane with servos and a 4-stroke 40 Surpass in it (looks brand new). The plane is in excellent shape and all I need to do is install my battery and receiver. Before I can fly this beauty, I need to know a few things. First, what is the CG for this plane. I was thinking that I would balance it at the spar on the upper wing. Also, what are the control throws for the plane: rudder, elevator and ailerons? Finally, what would be a good prop size for 40 Surpass? This is my first four-stroke engine. Thanks in advance.

Happy flying and soft landings!
