Default 33% H9 CAP - CG for 3D

I flew my H9 33% Cap today for the first time. The plane flew fine except it seamed to be real unstable in a hover/TR. My CG is set to about center of the wing tube. For those who are successfully hovering this plane, where is your CG?

Thanks,

Don,
I am pretty sure I am at the back of the wing tube or slightly aft of that..
What motor in yours?

Wayne,

I'm running a 3W-85 engine.

Your CG is about 3/4" further back than mine, do you think that would make a big difference?

Thanks for the reply.

I doubt you'd feel a huge difference in 3/4"
Try it and see.

I feel mine can go even further back and still be comfortable.
