Richard,
How many chanels on your radio gear.
Try swopping the rudder servo connection with the throttle connection on the reciever.
If it still does it then there is a problem with the instalation, if the problem changes to throttle try another reciever.

Have you got any metal to metal contact when you turn to starboard that isn't there in a port turn? Something rubbing against something else? Steering rod etc.

sounds like my radio problem is rubbing off onto your Schutze ::)

just a thought up the voltage to 7.2 and see if that makes a difference did wonders for me.

Did you try replacing the steering servo in case it is a servo error causing feedback to the receiver.
