Default Fuzzy gyro question

I have fitted an ACT fuzzy pro gyro (the older version, without the additional smm sensor) to my Pantera ailerons.
When I do a roll, The jet goes into the roll normally, but coming out of the roll, as the Tx stick is nearing neutral, (last quarter of the roll), the jet quickly whips back to straight & level flight. It is like the gyro has taken over from the Tx control to level the jet.
I think it has to do with the stick fade out setting, but I am not sure if I need to advance the fade out, or lessen it?

I advanced the stick fade out adjustment & that cured the problem. You have to be careful with this adjustment, if you advance it to far, you almost lose all roll movement when flying, as I found out.
