Check out the internet. There are many places that will guide you in detail. Basically, the C.G. should be located at 25 - 30% of the wing cord length. Problems arise in determining the cord length when the wing is swept back or not symmetrical.

This is a cool tool for finding The CG. When you find The MAC, which means Mean Aerodynamic Chord, or average chord. Measure back on that point, 30% on an aerobatic plane. For instance, if the chord at the MAC is 6 in., then the CG would be 2 in. back from the leading edge at the MAC point.
