Just filled out my first nasa report does itngo on your record?

Do all r7’s have that weird slightly concerning ticking noise its not very loud but you can definitely hear it

Just started my Ifr training and today I was flying and got handed off to a different control center that sounded busy over the radios, so I was wondering is it more favorable for the controller if I just say my request upon check in or wait for you guys to ask for it ?

Im about 6 flight lessons into instrument and things are going very good,learning approaches and the standard flight planning things. What I have found myself constantly having issue with is holding altitude I dont know why but once I put the foggles on my trim skills become useless and im slipping +- 100ft any advice is appreciated!
