Successful Autopilot flight with Hawkeye

Yesterday I had a successful stabilization and RTL with my Hawkeye. I've attached pictures of a Hawkeye in case you are wondering.

This airframe is very sensitive to wind. So I try to stay out of anything more than 12-15 mph. Winds yesterday were at max 8mph. When there was a breeze It seemed that the autopilot when running RTL was having a difficult time fighting it. Would making the rudder outputs more aggressive be the fix for this? I seem to remember there is a setting for this somwhere in the programmiong.
