Kyle,
That was a great video for information. It looks like everything is balanced well but the tail isn't set mechanically centered for trim when ready to fly. Vic told me a while back to start with that and he was spot on. Don't mess with the rate mode for flying, leave that for first adjusting the center and end points on the tail slider. After that stay in HH. Center your rudder trim and spool it up so it's light on the skids and see which way the tail goes. Then slider the servo on the boom either forward or revers until you get it perfect. This can take several spool ups to get it right. Don't use the trim on your radio to center the tail in the air, get it mechanically centered.


Blessings,

Jay
