As Tim said.
Most do not trim in slow flight or stalls to notice the up trim. From takeoff to cruise it is all down trim.
Your CG is a bit farther aft so more down trim is needed in some cases as the incidence of the wing is roughly 2.5 degrees nose down trim is needed as speed increases…
Happy Holidays,

Thx Tim, its good to know im not alone 
That said, the tab is neutral, with the stab in line with the fuse moulding, with the indicator also at neutral - so it appears the stab is not lined up with the fuse moulding in flight. I find that odd….
Cheers and Merry Christmas!

Hi Pete,
I have exactly the same issue but can live with it. Altering it is a real gymnastic exercise with space available and spanners!
Cheers,
Tim

Curious: My CG is a reasonable 60.86" yet I find that my trim is generally set quite far down in most phases of flight (and never nose up trim).
Is this what other folks are seeing?
Cheers and thx,
