Default Need help setting up ZNLine Madness

I just picked up a used Madness at a RC show for $50 US. It had a little hangar rash, but was in pretty good shape. If anyone else has this ARF, I have a couple questions....

Did you use standard or high-torque servos? I plan on using standard/JR servos, or did you need high torque for the ailerons and rudder like the Madness II? They guy I bought it from used standard servos, since it was so light.

What size engine did you use? I am planning on using a Super Tiger GS 45 with a 12X4 prop. Any recommendations on prop size?

I am an intermediate (at best) pilot, and I have seen a lot posted about the CG for this plane. It appears to be a pretty wide 'range' for this plane. Any recommendations? I saw quite a bit about 33 - 37% of the cord (which I am completely lost on). What would that translate to in mm/inches from the leading edge? This is my first 3D plane, so I am not looking to do wild acrobatics - at first

Any other recommendations for initial setup, throws, exponential, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I cannot find the manual on-line for this plane, only for the Madness II. If someone has it out there electronically, I would greatly appreciate it if you could send it to me.

Thanks! Mike
