Ground idle is not quite as important as throttle response when flying. Since the airplane has forward movement when idling in the air, the engine does not need as much fuel because the load is lighter, so you want it to be slightly on the lean side.

But I would not change anything until you have some break in time in the air on it. Maybe after you fly models for 50+ years your opinion might be different. Check back with me later!
