I have also installed a nose steering gyro as well. This also helps in braking. Just a cheap Futaba 240 or 401. Been able to buy for $25 bucks on ebay or other sites as heli guys have no need for that type of gyro any more

Normally I run about 20% expo on the nose to soften the steering but with the play I left it at 0 and it seems good but have not done a high speed taxi yet...
