Default GP CG Machine = Junk? UCD 60 Problem

Check this out, I am trying to balance my UCD 60. First of all, this is the first time I have tried to use this thing, second as you can see by the photo the arms flop all over the place making moving the plane and getting them to sit accurately impossible, and third the UCD 60 has NO supportive balsa on the wing near the CG to support the plane for CG checking. I am hanging this plane on the monokote, which does not make me feel very good.

Is this thing supposed to work like this? Am I the only one who is complaining about the UCD and checking the CG on the monokote?
