Default setting up thrust angle

It has been a while and I am not very experienced with building to begin with- I need to set the thrust angle on my Wattage Mad Max. Under hard throttle, it wants to climb straight up until it stalls unles sI hold some down elevator. If I cruise at a steady speed, keep it level and cut the motor, it dives. So the motor is pulling it up. To compensate- do I point the prop down some or up some? I have triple checked the balancing and it is dead on, so I am assuming it is a thrust issue. Thanks.
