Default FOAM SPAD cg point?

I am going to be building an electric powered SPAD from foam and other crashed plane parts. I am sure it will be a bit of a Frankenplane for sure. I am wondering how do I know where to set the CG point? Are there rules of thumb I should follow?

ANy infromation regarding scratch built foamies that I should consider is welcome!

Thanks!
