A couple of the guys have opted for a "rubber band" on the passengers stick
when encountering this
flying solo. Its quick easy and cheap. I went for a variation on the COZY
horse shoe spring
made from 6 layups of kevlar which pushes or pulls on the arm that comes up
the seat back to the push rods
and a servo, but i did this during CM build so not much help for you.
Personally i would try the "rubber band"
solution as it saves you messing up your paint job etc.

Hi ,
i need to fit a trim tab to counter the very slight left roll that has been
there
since construction, its ok when your vfr but i find it tiring when your not.
 (with a passenger there is no roll), what material are you using , where
should it be placed and what are the dimensions? im not looking to fit an
electric tab due to the work involved, although if anyone has fitted a
ground adjustable type that might be worth considering,

PS. can the ailerons be counter adjusted or do i need a trimtab?
