    If you can't make it spin by doing violent maneuver you are more than 70% the right way.

    Dead weight is good enough.
    Mass scale in xml can amplify the dead weight you put in.

    Or you can move the wings backward too, if that not mess up your design.

    I assume you know what and where to find center of lift and center of mass.
    This is common behavior of a tail heavy aircraft.
    Just add more weight to the front part to get CoM in front of CoL (how much is depend on the plane) will do the trick.
    When you select a part, there will be a gear icon pop up, click on that and there will be part's option.
    Fuselage part will have an option to add weight.
