Default glassed Smoothie

I picked up a beautiful old Smoothie that has wheel in the wings like a GP Sportster. The 43" fuselage is fiberglas. And the 53" wing is probably Monocoat with some kind of a clear coating on them that makes it very smooth to the touch. I have a OS .46AX on it now.

I'm wondering what the CG point is (I'm guessing about 25% of the wind chord) and what should the aileron, elevator, and rudder throws be at low and high gain? I fly easy ... no 3D flying.

Help appreciated. I'll try to add a photo later on.
