    With the transmitter on and the heli on, face the heli pointing towards you and push the right trim button 4-5 times. This should work !

    RC helicopters will turn to the left and it will only be solved by using trim.

    How many channels is your copter?

    It’s a good idea to use trim and co-ordinate your turns, and in general this should solve the problem. If, however, the problem persists, then I would guess that you would’veve thrown the tail rotor assembly out of whack. This may be the angle of the blades being improperly balanced, or a faulty motor, or something else. I would recommend that you take it to your nearest hobby shop to have it checked out. Above all, though, remember that a helo is not particularly stable and to fly it properly may be as simple as taking a few hours of time aside for some good, old-fashioned practice. Try and make your movements small, but direct and very, very precise. It’s a skill that has to be honed very accurately.
