Default problems controlling plane on the ground

A tail dragger is not controlled by the tail wheel ! You need to get the tail off the ground with the appropriate amount of throttle and use the rudder for directional control. Tail wheels are only there to keep the finish shiney and maintain the length of the model throughout it's lifespan.
