Default Downline tracking trim adjustment

Hello All,
I'm getting close on trimming this 2.6M Extra out. Now I'm to the point where I start up high and push the nose straight down. She pulls to the canopy pretty hard all by itself when it reaches the bottom.
Also, If I do a 1/8 cuban eight and omit the roll to right side up it will pull to almost straight down all by itself.
Motor thrust line looks good, straight and level full power and cut, she will climb ever so slightly. (I think I want the up thrust for 3D and not sure how much of a factor it really is at idle in the downline). Elevator was set to zero and I added only one click of down trim.
So what do you I should go after? Move the CG back a little?
