You will always get the what do you need a gyro for guys. I use a Futaba GY240 for the nose wheel only. I run 100% gain and I do not use heading hold. I do not have it on a mix switch all my planes have cable steering that is loose when retracted. Been running that way for many years. I have it on 3 of my 5 jets.
