Put some washers in the rear retract mounting holes between the retract body and the bearers. 1/8th to 3/16ths is a good start. It will angle the gear to the front and reduce the unwanted tendency. Just don't tell anybody.......

Lol, that's a good idea. I laugh because "don't tell anyone". I honestly beleive right now that I may have to much now weight, but that's only due to it wanting to nose up during flight which causes me to beleive that I don't have enough downward thrust angle
