Default yard sale find, need input please

I found this plane at a yard sale this weekend, 52 inch ws, 46 inch fuse length, os 90 fs, futaba 3004 servos and R156f reciever, looks as though the plane has flown in the last year or so, the engine runs great and when I put my chrystal in it everything works. I have tested everything and checked all connections and wiring, control serfaces are all pinned hinges, fuse is covered in fabric and wings are monocote (appears to be) after dissasembly, inspection and testing this thing looks to be ready to fly. My question is does anyone out there know what this is, who made it, is this someones scratchbuilt, was it origionally a bipe and most important, any ideas on where C.G. should be? right now it balances on the LE of the bottom wing (inverted) The woman I bounght it frome knew nothing about it, (death or divorce comes to mind, I didnt ask) but the best part Is I got it for 75 bucks, I figured the engine was worth that! I dont plan on flying it until I get some CG input or Ideas. As always thanks to all in advance!
