General trim on 130x

On my 130x when I hover, it wants to drift rear and to the left. If you were facing north it drifts in a southwest direction. I know how to subtrim on dx6 but it seems to over adjust it. Can I turn the push rods from the servos or how would I go about doing it? Start to finish. I know they have a tendancy to drift, I have two and one I have to almost fight to keep it in a hover. Thanks

Yes it appears level. I do notice if I unplug the motor and give it half throttle the left aileron will sink down until it bottoms out. Is that normal?

Nope, that's when the subtrim is needed. I learned to unplug the motor and throttle it some, as you did, then sub trim to stop any servo movement after you hold your stick position.
The mCPx and CPx taught me that one.
