While I don't have this plane I do have a 50cc TT TOC Yak 54 and I am at the rear of the suggested CG range and may move it a bit further back, Yak 54's from what I have heard from others like a neutral to slightly tail heavy (on the cg mid point) for best overall flight.

Mine requires very slight down elevator during inverted flight and is very neutral in an inverted 45 upline...and lands very slowly with this cg, much better than when I first started with a slightly nose heavy cg.

Adjusting the batteries 1/4" back at a time should get you where you like it!

Keep us posted!
