Default Kit Bashing Bipe ??

I have a Ace Big Bingo that I fitted two Sig Cap arf wings to. The top wing is 1" forward of the lower wing. The lower wing is set to 0 deg with the tail assembly. The top wing is at neg-1/2 deg. I am not sure where to balance the plane. Any help would be apperacited

All my bipes are balanced at 25% of the overall chord for the first couple flights.
25% is a general rule of thumb with bipes, but remember that it is the overall.
Leading edge of the top wing to the trailing edge of the bottom wing.
Hope this helps
