RE: Yaw
Actually Jetts, from the way I'm reading his post, it could be adverse yaw. He says, "it sometimes refuses to turn and wants to fly sideways". If this happens when he applies ailerons, say for a left turn, and the nose moves a bit towards the right, it could appear to be flying "sideways".
Bob,
Are your ailerons set up so that there's more up than down?
