Having said it has been crashed, do you know all of the surfaces are straight and with out warp's.
Check the engine/motor alignment for left thrust.
You also did not say if it is rolling left or yahing left, turning can be started by eather.

Cheers

It would help, !
Do you have an incidence meter if so just take a reading at the rout (next to the fus) and then at the tip that will tell you if that side is straight do the same on the other side Note the plane just needs to be in a level flight position. you can do the same thing by just marking spot on the leading and trialing edge's and measure with a good scale

Cheers

Hope this helps

Is the plane yawing or rolling? I have many flights on my F27C. I can tell you that if you didn't reinforce the fuselage it will eventually warp from flight stresses. That can cause some wing twist which will put you out of trim.
