Default VIRUS ASP please help

i have a virus ASP and flew it for the first time today(more to follow). i was told that when you cut the power it is suppose to float, well it went straight into a dive and i had to keep the throttle a 1/2 just to keep it in the air. the CG is recommended to be between 2 3/4 to 3 1/2 from the LE. i had mine about 3 from the LE, if i move the CG forward a little will it make a difference if the motor off portion of the flight..

THE FOLLOW.... while trying to adjust the control throws while in the air i didn't see the 100 year old very large pine tree, nipped the top turned it vertical and then upside down into the other 100 year old tree right beside it. climbed up with a pole and string after 30 min i finally got it around the wheel and slowly lowered it to the ground. with only a small tear in the wing cover that scotch tape will fix..

thanks,
pepper
