Sounds like you need some trim tabs on one of your ailerons and you rudder. S piece of aluminum maybe 3" x 6" tall, bent to create a 1.5" by 6" tab, which is then screwed to the control surface. Then keep bending until you get it perfect for cruise and you'll be able to fly it hands off after that. Most folks have to do something like that, so don't feel bad. My first few flights required so much left rudder that my leg hurt before I landed. Now I only need a little trim on takeoff or during a really steep descent...
