Gary,
If everything else didn't change you gave it left turn with the rudder.
The motor stick and the inherent right thrust do contribute, but I would
suspect the influence of the "left rudder." The wing, being at a cant will
want to fly in the direction of the wing too.

Normally a wing is mounted perpendicular to the motor stick in plan view.
However, if the wing is mounted at an angle other than 90 degrees to the
motor stick, for instance with the leading edge of the right side of the wing
ahead of the leading edge of the left side of the wing, the plane will
turn to the left. What is the aerodynamic reason for this?
