Default Difference in roll performance

Hello all,
I’m still new here so be gentile…. I’ve got a H9 raptor, and though I know it not the greatest sport plane ever, I just wanted to know if it is the airframe or something else causing my issues. I’ve noticed when I perform a roll, there’s a difference in what the tail tends to do. If I roll to the left, rolls are axial and no funny business. However, if I roll to the right, about 90deg into the roll, the tail starts to swing ahead of the fuselage, kinda like a crappy snap roll. I have checked all the control surfaces, and all the throws are identical from left to right. Is this a thrust angle issue, and if so, what would I have to do to correct this?... More LT thrust? Just a thought, if I'm headed in the wrong direction, pleas let me know.

Any inputs are much appreciated
