I own a couple of taildraggers - a small electric Brio 10 with a skid, a Joker, and a 1/5 scale Piper Cub. The last two have steerable tailwheels. The small electrics without tailwheels are difficult to taxi in any wind. Sometimes I simply cannot taxi because I have 50 degrees of left rudder and the wind is still pushing the plane in the other direction. The key to taking off when flying light electrics with skids is to get the throttle up fairly quickly to make rudder input more effective. It is also necessary to anticipate what the airplane is going to do. If you wait until it's starting to veer off course it's already too late. The Four Star is a very easy taildragger to taxi and take off. I guarantee it would be easier than your electric.
