Default Rudder concerns

Hi!
I´m getting my trainer ready for flying it´s second season and have a little problem.

The rudder servo (which controls the nosegear as well) will not center after turning right, it stops about 5 degrees short (it centers fine after turning left). I have´nt been able to find any pushrod bending or anything causing additional friction. I also tried it with another servo and the same thing happens.

Should I be concerned?

Oh and also, the elevator is slightly bent/warped. The right side of it points down 2-3 degrees, is that a problem?

Any suggestions appreciated!!

Oh, the plane is a Kyosho Calmato by the way (a high-wing 40 trainer with 1,6 meter wingspan).
