Charlie, i think that is about right, I have it balanced about 1/4" behind the point where the back landing gear wire strut attaches to the fuselage.
I took  couple peice of wood and made a upside down tee shape, used one peice about 6"x8" as a base and another peice  about 6"x10' and attached it at center of the base peice so it stands up, than I set the fuselage just behind the back landing gear  on the peice standing up to check the balance at that point.
