I am having a real tough time learing to fly this thing. I fly airplanes but this helicopter is another story. Any suggestion to keep from flying to the left I have the right stick trimmed all the way right?

Firstly, welcome to the Ezone!!!
You may want to fill in your location, you never know, you may find someone down your road who can help set it up!

Anyway, I presum that this drfiting to the left is when it is still on the ground? If so, it is normal, and will stop drifting once in the air. Just try and kind of punch the throttle, get it a couple of feet high, and try and keep it in the same place.

You will find it hard, you will crash, you will break parts, you will spend money, you will get frustrated, but then, slowly, you will realise you are getting better, and keeping it in the air for longer and longer each flight!!!

Practice on a soft surface, like grass, carpet e.t.c., wont give as much damage in crahses, tip overs e.t.c.

One last thing, have you read the EHBG? :
