If you do install a gyro on the nose make sure you put a mix on it to make the gyro gain zero when gear is retracted or else it will still make corrections on the steering servo. Depending on the aircraft it might not be able to move when the gear is up so it will burn it out.

Even with steering disabled when gear is up the steering servo will continue to make corrections unless you install a mix to make gyro gain zero.
