That's because a "stuck right" is simply pedal position with centered pedals as a reference. Centered pedals are not the zero thrust position of the tail rotor. If you want to know the zero thrust position it will roughly be the right pedal applied to keep the nose straight when you close the throttle to initiate a hovering auto (not scientific, but close).
