Default Axe CP Flight Issues

Hi all, I need help from someone who owns both a decent 450-size heli and an Axe CP. This is because I need someone who knows the difference between how a 450 flies and how an Axe CP flies. I have a belt-modded Axe CP and I've noticed that it is especially unstable in flight. It gets thrown around by light winds pretty easily, and it has trouble keeping its nose down in forward flight. Do others experience this with their Axe? - is this pretty common? - or should I start trouble shooting servos and rotor head performance? Also, would a T-Rex 250 head fit on the Axe CP's main rotor shaft? The reason I ask these questions is because when I take out my 450 heli, it flies great, and I keep comparing my Axe CP's performance to it, which is pretty disappointing. I can barely keep that thing in the air. I can maintain an inverted hover on my 450, so I know it's not a lack of flying skills on my end.

If you have any kind of advice, I'll welcome it, thanks.
