My battery is in the standard location. Accordingly, my CG is further aft than most RV-10's. I can carry four adults, but have to watch the weights carefully. Typically two couples is fine, but if I put in four big men, it is very close to the aft limit. I also have an MT prop, which is 17 lbs lighter than the 2 blade McCauley, IIRC. Having that extra weight up on the prop would improve things a bit for me. However, 98% of my flying is just my wife and I, so it works fine for us.
