I bet I know who's Extra you bought. 
On my Extra 300's the CG is at the alum wing tube. It should be close to the same with yours. Just balance it a little ahead of that then when all goes well, move it a back a little till you're comfortable with it.
Throws:
Ailreon : 5/8"
Elevator : 3/4"
Rudder : 1 1/2"
Hope this helps.

BTW, you won't be over your head. I went from a 4star 40 to a 1/4 Laser....they fly nothing alike. The laser flies so much better, and easier because it is a bigger plane.
