Default Help with Aerobird

Hopefully someone can help me. After my aerobird crashed I put a new a new wing on it but when I flew it it I couldn't get the plane to turn left very well. After getting it on the ground there was still a good deal of movement on the right v-tail but I couldn't get the plane to turn left. so I hand adjusted the tail until I could get the plane to turn left. Now the plane stalls at relatively slow speeds. Do anyone have any ideas on what I could do to help with this.
Thanks,
Cale

adjust the tail screws. The manual explains how to do this.

Are you using the Pro mode on the transmitter? I would forget training mode. All the Firebird, Fighterbird, Aerobird models turn left poorly at low throttle settings when only one ruddervator is working. Go to pro mode, get the plane trimmed for straight flight by eye as best you can and give it another go. Get plenty of height before you start your turns. have fun!

Thanks for the response. Although I have the old challenger that doesn't have 2 modes.

Covered foam breaks easily. Often you can't see it but you can feel the flex. Fly it this way and it will fold under load.
