so I'm getting slowly annoyed with my fastech that I can carve turns to starboard (right) nice and tight with no issue but turning to port (left) is ridiculously wide. like 10x the turning radius of right. I've played with all sorts of trim settings on my controller and such but it doesn't seem to make a difference. is this just normal behavior of an offset rudder? would converting to a dual rudder setup help my issue? i just feel like if I try turning to left it swings so wide I'm borderline knocking myself out of range and I am having to "figure 8" back to the right to really turn around at the end of a run. any ideas, tips, suggestions?

Ziggy,
it is normal for the FASTech to act that way, you need to read Darin's thread which for some crazy reason I can't find it, but this will give you an idea, look carefully at post #7, that is what was recommended essentially.
