Ok this is my setup
hawk pro converted to a raven 30 ccpm
os37 with CY 30 size muffler (scored big on that muffler)
fubata 7chp 72mhz
futaba 8 channel reciever with deans whip antenna
futaba gy401 with 9254 30% gain and holding forward flight and hover
Head and tail have thrust bearings
aluminum torque tube drive
Main-wood, Tail-trex carbon 95mm
futaba 9205 on trottle 10 sec respond metal gear about 80 or so torque
futaba 3 9402 on ccpm swash 10 sec metal gear 100 or so torque

thrust bearings are amazing so smooth wooo hooo anyways!!!

I got the heli to hover really good at mid-stick
when I increase the throttle on stick beyond mid...the tail yaws about 10-20 degrees to the right (was doing the climb out tuning to make sure the engine wasn't increase in power. Please advise on how to fix the problem

Most of the time that happens it deal with the centering of the tail servo. Make sure upon initialization, that the servo arm is set @ 90 degrees. If not, adjust accordingly.

This should rectify the problem.

Forgot to ask.......do you have Revo working? If so, you should inhibit the function when using the GY401

problem solved thanks guys for your help. the control arm that connects to the tail pitch slider had some play in it so I replaced it and problem was fixed
