How do I change player (ecctrl chid) starting position in my world and also make the camera start from there?

I have a custom component which i use as my character for the child as shown below, how do I set a custom initial position for this? I tried using the camTargetPos prop but it moved only the camera and not the player. i tried changing the position of the mesh of my player component but whenever I move it it flies off or falls off infinitely. I hope you can help me out with this.

<Ecctrl
ref={playerRef}
floatHeight={0.05}
maxVelLimit={4}
jumpVel={4}
capsuleRadius={0.35}
capsuleHalfHeight={0.105}

          >
            <Player />
          </Ecctrl>
          
          
    This is the mesh for my player component:
          <mesh
    ref={head}
    geometry={bowlCoverGeometry}
    position={[0, 0.01, 0]}
    scale={[0.6, 0.6, 0.6]}
  >
    <meshBasicMaterial color="sienna" />
  </mesh> 

Start with the Ecctrl component props and playerRef usage shown in the issue, then inspect the controller's positioning and camera-target documentation or examples. Done means documenting or demonstrating how to set the player's initial world position and align the starting camera without relying on mesh position.
