See this all the time at my track, It is caused from the rear end not being level. Try tightening one screw in the H-plate to adjust it, or you might have to add a shim or washer there. If you have just the stock H-plate, you can try to twist it back to level. The rear end must be level to have equal steering on both sides.

I had the same problem. Took some tinkering with to get the right shim for mine. Before fixing, while sitting on a flat surface, my front right wheel wasn't even touching the ground. Getting the right tweak to the rear end made my car turn evenly both directions now.

maybe it's not the tweak. cus some cheap brand carbon fibre h plates dont retrun after a while of using. when it rolls one way, it seems to return only have way and not falt to it's original possition. i find that the stock h plate is the best since it's plastic so it wont have this problem. and it handels the best. problem is that it tends to break often. if ur using a cheap h plate. try a kyosho carbon fiber or stock
