Default Lightning CG

HI all, knowing the Lightning is usually tail heavy, I built a bridge in the nose to carry all the batteries. I balanced the lightning tonight and it"s 2 3/4'' in front of the center of the wing tube, a little nose heavy. Question, should I move the CG to 2'' or do the first flight at 2 3/4''.
