Default firebird xl cg

Yes! It does tend to fly left and at first even went nose down!...But adjusting the trim tabs did help in getting the required lift !though she turns left at times....The fire bird Outlaw has a cell pack of 6Volts ie. 5 Cells of 1.2V each.
A 7 cell pack will be out of the question as the fuselage won't have that much space for the extra cell....but with 7 cell at cruising speed(less throttle) won't it go nose down?
I would like to know how often should the cell pack be charged....If it is kept idle for long periods of time.
Does charging discharging the cell pack often reduce the life of the cell pack?
