Effect on CG of tail dolly left on in flight

My point is that if a glider was at max aft CG, and then you add a tail dolly, the glider could be out of CG and you could have a major problem on your hands. *If at max aft CG the problem would be, I assume, the glider pitching violently upwards as soon as sufficient speed for lift was attained.. *Yes/no?
The only aircraft I have ever flown with CG aft of the limit was -
thankfully - a RC one. It would not fly level without significant
effort on my part; it wanted to either pitch up or _dive_, depending
on my input.
