It may be nose angle a bit as well. If you're hitting 350'-400' that should be enough to turn tons of different discs that are marketed as understable. Usually the problem seems that people turn the understable discs too much because they crank on them. It seems you have a different "problem" which is you are throwing them hard but cleanly, and they aren't really turning.
If you throw them more nose down that may make them fly more understable (in a controlled way). It may force the disc over a bit more...nose down makes discs a bit more turny I find.
Spin I find stabilizes discs, so more spin on a disc makes it drift right and left a bit less.
Do you have any speed 7ish understable discs? Like a River or Leopard? I haven't thrown a Tern, but I do have a Vulcan which is very understable. But that being said, it's a speed 13 so unless it's thrown with 350' of power it is straight to fade. When thrown with clean power it turns right for the majority of its flight. The Tern may be acting speed stable as well. This is just a possibility though, I've never thrown one.
