Default RE: Heli-Max AXE going left in hover

I have an AXE EZ. I landed mine on an ottoman and it because it had the training gear on it, it slid off and landed directly on the rotor head which broke. I brought it in to have it fixed and when I got it back it was pulling to the right. The control trim is all the way left and it still has a little right pull to it so I have to compenate with 1/4 or so left cyclic. The LHS that fixed it say this is not unusual to have the trims pinned over one way and still have to compensate some. It does fly ok. Is it possible to adjust the cyclic arm lengths or turn the little screw on the cyclic servo to make an adjustment???? I looks like you could loosen the screw, push that little arm down a couple of mm. and retighten the screw to bring the cyclic more left then retrim the controller and it would need less compensation when flying.

Should'nt I be able to trim it out to zero so that the cyclic is very near center while hovering?

As it is now I hold 1/4 to 1/2 over left cyclic and that achieves balanced hover. If I bring the cyclic to center it zooms right.

Help!
