Default LANIER CG point???

I am ready to train on my Lanier LT-40 which I converted from glow to electric and I have misplaced my plans. Can someone tell me how far back from the leading edge the CG point is?

Thank you.

3-1/2" back from the leading edge of the wing.

I can't tell you from the plans but I usually measure the width of the wing
near the fuse and then divide that by three. I've always been told the CG
is one third of the wing from the leading edge.

Hope it helps,

John
