Default Servo rotates too far

I'm a bit of a newbie with this stuff... But I'm trying to set up my wife's HoneyBee CP2. The very first thing I did was unplug the motors from the 4-in-1, turned on the tx, and plugged in the heli's battery. I played with the controls to make sure that everything was operating correctly. And the servo on the left side is not.

Without power, the servo arm is in a good position, as shown.


But when I plug in the battery, the 4-in-1 calibrated itself, and in the process that servo arm rotated to this position and was stopped by the frame.


I can hear the servo trying to rotate even more, but it can't because of the frame.

I did a little playing with things to no avail, and I'm not sure of how to proceed. I *think* that I should remove the servo, remove the arm, and then replace the arm at a lower angle. Yes/no? I'm just not sure and don't want to muck things up even worse.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott
