Default How can I find the perfect CG?

When placing the battery on my aerohawk to get the perfect CG; Where should I lift the helicopter to se if it's perfect balanced? Should I lift it with the balance wing? Is it the same what position the main rotorblades are in when finding the CG?

For my piccolo, I always pick it up by the flybar, with the flybar oriented from left to right. If it is level, the CG is good enough. I occasionally repeat the process with the flybar oriented front to back to see if the CG is good left to right.
Is it the same with other heli's?

Yes your right VinceHerm helis are balanced from the flybar.
