Default RE: Proper linkage setup on blade CX?

Another question.

I have it hovering nicely at centered trims which is great but now it seems like I have more backward flight then forward. Is this because of the linkage adjustment? If I hit full forward it'll barely drift forward while if I hit full backward you can see the heli tilt and take off backwards very snappy.

The servo linkages are on the second hole in the servo arm. Can I move them to the 3rd or 4th hole out to get more throw? It also looks like the linkage arms on the swashplate bend a lot. Is this normal? I see that Eflite will be coming out with an aluminum swashplate so I'm wondering if there is so much flex in my plastic version what will happen with an aluminum version.
