Default CP sliding left hard

My CP won't sliding left on throddle up. I have tried to go back through the setup and balance it out. But, it just keeps sliding left. I know some is normal but this is frustrating. I'm new so I'm still working on the RADD approach to flying but once I throddle up to about 50% it goes left hard. I have trimmed all the way to the right with no luck. Can it still be a setup problem?
Thanks

There is a rod from your servo horn to your swashplate that you can unscrew to extend to compensate for this.

Won't this throw off all the work I did to make sure the swachplate is level?

If possible have another heli pilot help you trim it out, as it will have a tendency to go right but if it is real excessive than you may have something off.

You can try putting the training gear on and getting it light in the skids enough to work on it yourself.

The more time you spend on setup is the easier it will be for you to fly.

Get it on as close as you can mechanically then use the radio to get it dead on.

I spent hours on mine and it can almost hover hands off (I actually take my hands off for a couple of seconds to check the trims).


Have fun!
