I have a 200 size Bell helicopter and it constantly veers in one direction to the side. I have recalibrated the Gyro according to the video on MotionRc but it still does it. Thoughts?

I don't have this particular heli but are you waiting for the green light to come on, showing that the heli is fully initialized and self calibrated? This is a gyro stabilized heli, NOT a GPS stabilized heli. It should hold altitude BUT will drift if subjected to outside forces such as wind. Have you trimmed it in dead calm (eg. in a large indoor space)? Being properly trimmed should help it hold better and should require only minimal stick inputs to hold position.
I do have larger GPS helis and these WILL hold altitude and position when the sticks are not touched, even in a stiff breeze. I also have the larger "gyro" only stabilized helis and those WILL drift in the wind (even slight breezes). It's up to the operator to work the sticks to make is hold position.
