Default BVM Bobcat advice required please

Hi guys,

I recently purchased a composite BVM Bobcat but have no instructions for C.G. etc, looking on BVM website it states 8.2" AFT of L.E. at Fuse Wing root

Can you guys who are successfully flying bobcats please confirm at which location on the attached diagram the measurement should be taken for the C.G. 1,2 or 3? Now my thought is 3 but not sure if the measurement is to be taken inside or outside the booms?

Second question is engine down thrust, I believe the downthrust on the bobcat/kingcats are significant. im running a Jetcat P80 but unsure of required angle of dangle

Thanks for your feedback, its greatly appreciated.
