Default Adjusting Elevator on Slo-V

Hello everyone, I just got my first plane today for Christmas...The Parkzone Slo-v. Everything went fine except 2 things:

1) i accidentally cut off about 2 inches of the receiver wire getting the plane out of the box; will this affect range that much?

2) i tried to trim the plane, it flew straight except kept wanting climb, so i trimmed out the elevator. even with full trim down, the plane still wants to fly upwards @ full throttle. Is it possible to adjust the elevator any more?

I tried the slow rates, but immediately went to the high rates. other than the above, it flew great. Thanks to the info i've read here on balancing, i didn't even have to trim left and right. I also had the wing all the way forward...what will it affect by moving the wing back 1 notch? Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.
