Default balanced rudder?

I am currently building a Sagittia ( the 2 meter one) as was typical of airtronics it has a balances rudder. Personally on a 2 meter plane I don't see the need especially with ailerons. So the question is if I make the balanced part of the rudder ( the part forward of the hinge line) solid do I need th increase the size of the movable rudder surface?
