Help with Carenado Acher II V.2

I make some changes in the Aircraft.cfg but it has an negativ effect.
The rear of the Archer is to near on the Ground, I do an Screenshot in front the V.2 and in the back from V.1, the angle with red strips.
I think the Maingear is wrong.
Where can I find the point, to change the Maingear and lift or bring the rear of the Archer up ?

That looks to me to be the proper ground stance for a real Archer... I worked around them at the airport when I was a Line Rat. The Archer/Cherokee/Dakota family of Piper singles sit very tail low. It may be that they didn't get V1 right and corrected it in V2.

I've never seen a low wing Piper single rotate on takeoff. the just fly off the ground once they reach flying speed due to the angle of attack the wing has due to it's tail low attitude.
