Default CMP 50 size Zero Balanceing HELP !

OK this is probably the first time I have built a CMP pro ARF and I got to say for the most part it has been allot of fun , however I have not flown this plane yet and am not sure after reading the reviews on RC Universe were I am suppose to balance this thing , everyone says the CG is listed wrong , my dilema is the instructions say the CG is 95 to 105mm from the LE this is were my model wants to balance , without adding a ridiculous amount of weight , this is were the main spar is located , this is also exactly 30 % the overall wing width , I also weighed my model and it falls to the exact specs that the manufacture says it should weigh completed ,all of these things is what I was taught in therory is were it is suppose to balance , but everything I have read on here states that the CG is listed wrong and to move it up to around 80 to 85mm ,they have built and flown this plane So who's right ? what should I do ? any help would be greatly appreciated
