Hello, I'm new here. I just bought a sc about 2 weeks ago, and I've been flying it quite a bit. But while it's flying and should be going straight ahead it veers to the left. I can reduce some of it by moving the rudder trim to the right a lot, like 100% to the right. Is this normal? I'm guessing not, also I haven't really had any bad landings or anything either. So I'm just confused, and any help would be appreciated. thanks

turn on the tx, center the trim for the rudder install the battery, and check the position of the rudder if its not centered, with the trim center, remove the clevis from the control horn, and screw the clevis in or out, to center the rudder

Mine was off even with full trim so I took the wings off and I unscrewed and moved the head on the gyro just a bit. Worked like a charm. My clevis was seized otherwise that is the route I would have taken.

Thanks for the thread guys.
My SC needs full right rudder trim to fly straight. I did not realise that the clevis was threaded and adjustable, so now I can sort this niggly little problem out.
Cheers.

Mine was way off for the first flight also. I had to fulll left trim to get it to go straight. All it wanted to do is turn sharp right. Made servo adjustment with the clevis.
