Default RE: Super Skybolt ARF

I'm surprised to hear about moving the CG back... While the stock one is conservative, this is not a 3D airplane and does not benefit much from a rearward CG. The snaps only get sloppier and the knife edge starts to couple. At the stock location, I could dang near get a flat spin to climb with a saito 1.25, Minn saw mine fly with a stock CG, I don't see a need to go any further back with it.

Now that being said, we all have different preferences, and I am a student of the game. Could you guys explain to me the benefits you are looking for when moving the CG back on this type of plane?!?!
