Hi Greg,

Factory CG is fine. Make sure you balance this with the gear up and uat full. This has been confirmed by Tony at Pilot. Mine was slightly tail heavy as I balanced with gear down and it’s quite a shift backwards when they retract.

You will I’ll need a few clicks of up trim. Below is a photo of how mine is. I’ve had six flights now on mine and I have to say it is a superb flying jet. It’s very stable in the air and flies beautifully on the M70xbl

Also take off flap works great as in the video below. The only throw I changed from the manual was my aileron as they were a little bit to lively for me

Here’s some video from one of my flights yesterday. Sorry about the poor quality, need a better camera.
