In this case, you really need to listen to what Thomas and others are

The neutral position for trim tabs is the position in which the trim
tabs are aligned with the control surface. The neutral position for
control surfaces is the position in which they are aligned with the
surfaces to which they are attached (wings or stabilizers).


Ok Anthony, you have perfectly loaded your aircraft so the that it trims out
to what you like to call nuetra or default. What are you going to do once
you have burned off fuel and the CG changes?
