Trailing links will hurt you on takeoff performance as they flex they move aft and will put more weight on the nosewheel. Nosewheel springs compressing also hurts you by putting the plane in a negative angle of attack that requires the elevator to produce more downforce to overcome= more speed required = more distance required. Proper design is the first thing-but that is mostly out of the modelers control- get the mains as close to the cg as possible so that the load on the nosewheel is small and you can get the nose up to rotate sooner. in the end good setup with wheels pointing straight and running as big of wheels as possible will help the most.
