Also test the surfaces when you tilt the plane around in stabilize mode. My elevator moved correctly when I moved the stick, but when I tilted the nose of the plane down the elevator would go down as well. Luckily I noticed this on the bench and reversed the elevator in the RC config panel. :)

I have never seen what you are seeing, but is your Transmitter by chhance in Helicopter mode? I know heli mode can do some weird mixing out of the box. People always suggest Airplane/Acro mode on the transmitter if it has one.
Also, so others may be able to help, what transmitter (radio) are you using?

Thanks for the input guys, but I figured it out... There is a setting in StandardParams that I changed.

Rudder Mix (KFF_RDDRMIX) was set to .5 and I changed it to 0. This eliminated the issue that I was seeing. Hopefully this helps someone else along the way.

Now I have to wait for my 3DR Radios to get here then I can put it in the plane and fly next week...
