Default CG for Telemaster 40 ?

Anybody have Telemaster 40 plans that show CG, down thrust, right thrust? Just bought a used Telemaster 40 without plans and found it set up at neutral trims with down elevator, right rudder and lead in the nose - not comfortable trying to fly without a thorough checkout..
Also any suggestions from you Telemaster masters would be welcome. I am a beginning pilot with a number of landings with a PT 40, but also some incidents (don't like the word crash).

The CG is at the mail spar of the wing, a good rule of thumb is set everything at o degrees and it will be fine.

But I had a couple of 40 telemasters and I think the engine was 2 degrees down and 2 degrees right

G'day Mate,
All the above is a good starting point, the thrust changes, only make it easier for you to fly it, but it will still fly without any down or right thrust.
So don't worry too much about it, just get the CG on the main spar, with tank empty & you'll be fine.
