Default RE: CG question?

I dont have much flying experience but the Tigerwas trimmed to fly hands off by a buddy at the field.
Trim settings are: (looking at the readout on my Spectrum DX7)
rudder = centered.
Aileron = halfway to the right.
Elevator = more than halfway down (or back)

When Icheck lateral balance it is heavy on the right side / wants to roll to the right.

So even with this lateral balance I have to add right aileron trim to fly level.

Is this an unusual amount of trim?

I'm having a Blast with it so I'll just keep flying but these trim adjustments intrest me... somethings crooked / not aligned right.
