Default RE: 4th gen A-10 by Mibo jets

Hope you don't mind if I clutter up your thread a little more jimbo, but I'm hoping the experts will weigh in on latest CG info. I've got the plane rigged (Gen 3, P-120's, 5200x4 LiPo's in nose) and it appears to be nose heavy! This surprised me because I was expecting to have to add lead in the nose to balance.

Is this the best CG to fly? Do you measure from the LE of the slat or the LE of the wingroot (which doesn't quite look like the picture below)?

Thanks in advance.

BTW I asked "Boss Hog" aka Billy, but I don't think he can remember his CG 'cause that was something like 600 flights ago that he set it up!!!!!!!!!!
