Default question-more weight or engine downthrust

I sent my mx2 with a dle30 for the first time today. I was lucky to land her safely......I thought I had the plane balanced correctly. upon take & a little elevator she went straight up, I backed off throttle & got her straight again, but every time I gave it any throttle it wanted to go noes up & fly. Should I apply more weight on tail or try downthrust on my engine install. Thanks for any help.....I think I read somewhere to ignore the manual cg recommendations & go 5 1/4 for CG.....
