A link to the specific model would help a great deal. NONE of our RC models have too much torque. More than likely a flight control/surface is twisted or warped.

Did you buy it off the internet? If so where? add a link to the web site.
You haven't told us anything useful in determining exactly what you have.
With out that We can't help you

Is this your airplane?

Have you flown an RC plane before? Are the ailerons operating correctly?

OOOPS I appologize, I failed to note that this was the Hobby Lobby thread. I am in no way associated with HL, I was just trying to help someone with a problem.
