Default C/G with folding props

Just got my first electric glider. Instructions are in German. The question is: When setting the c/g should I have the props folded or open? I'm going with folded as this is the state they will be in the most. And under power they will just make the plane a tad nose heavy. Am I off base?

Default RE: C/G with folding props

Do it folded.
The slightly forward c.g when extended and running is stablizing.
