Default Thrust ?

Hey guys i have a GP 330S extra. It was designed for a fugi 43 or a comparable glow. I have installed a DL50! The plane flyes great and handle calm. The question that i have is when pulling into a vertical the plane as it is heading away from me veres to the left. to stop it i have to apply right rudder. I know that i need to learn to do these controls, but my question is could i need more right thrust. I am turning a 23A Vess prop.

sounds like its doing a high speed stall, ...... ok is it when you are are pulling back hard , or do you mean when you are doing a a gradual vertical upline?

Thanks guys i am going to start added thin washers to the left stand offs. And see if that helps any.

And MetallicaJunkie it does it weither the pull into a verticall is gradual or fast. It just goes to the left i have not checked but i am willing to bet that if i took off and turned the plane directly away from me that is doing the same the in level flight. I have had to do more than normal correcting on the aproach now that i think of it

wait a sec... you are not talking about a vertical line, just when you pull on the elevator?

Sounds like your elevators are out of sync and not travelling at the same time. Put 2 bamoo sticks on the elevators so they meet behind the rudder.. then see if the sticks stay together when you give it up elevator.
