take the servo arms off and center the servos and then put the arms back on and make sure every thing is level on the head and then trim the heli from there ..

By pitching to the right do you mean leaning to the right while hovering or actually moving to the right ? as leaning to the right is a normal characteristic of a right rotating heli

Normal on every CW rotat helo ever born. You must compensate for it as you take off. After the bird is up and settled into a hover, you can trim for drift etc. But that move as it leaves the groud is normal

yup, it is possible you have a set up problem too, but it is important to know the heli needs to lean to teh left a bit to hold a hover. (compensating for tail rotor thrust)
