MAC is not measured at the root chord. Mean Aerodynamic Chord is the AVERAGE chord length. Your MAC will be somewhere mid span, find the CG at that point, then transfer it to the root. That being said, behind the tube seems roughly the right spot. Just want to be clear to hopefully save you from a crash.
