I put a "to" where I should have put an "and".  So let me rephrase that and 
say that I'm going to move the CG aft some (by moving the backup battery 
toward the tail, and maybe adding a few pounds of lead to the tail spring 
mount) and THEN I might adjust the horizontal stab.  Right now I never need 
to trim the plane down, it's always in the up direction, so I need to do 
something to get the nose up anyway.  Moving the CG aft some may do it, but 
if not, changing the horizontal stab incidence will definitely do it.  I 
have a pretty big range of movement back there, but I don't think I'll need 
much.  Until I do that, my top speed will not be optimal.
