Creek Edge 540 CG?
I don't know about the Edge, but with my Creek Hobbie's Extra, the range is 26-30% back from the leading edge. I would think you could apply that same range (which seems fairly typical among other planes I've seen) to the edge. It works out to about 4.29-4.95" on the Extra's 16.5" chord wing.
If it's anything like the Extra I would go a little on the nose heavy side of the range. The Extra was very hard to fly when I was (embarrassed look) past the tail heavy side.

I have the Creek Katana and wasn't real sure of the cg,so I called Creek.They told me that all the planes should start at 4 1/4 inches from leading edge for a starting point.Depending on your flying style should dictate where you go from there.Hope this helps.
