I didn't realize this was a commercial, well proven design...so every thing that's been engineered ought to make it fly like a champ.
My advice is "Rule Of Thumb" to get scratch built C/L planes safely in the air. Beyond that, it's still up to the pilot to fine tune the balance points and the control geometry for his personal taste.
