Default RE: tric. landing

You may have to release some rudder input once the nosewheel touches, but not all, depending on how much nosewheel deflection you have. Depending on how strong the x-wind the plane may still weathervane into the wind with the nose on the ground. If you touchdown with the correct sideslip you shouldn't get a drastic yaw once the nose touches, especially since you should be at low speed by the time you bring the nosewheel to the ground.
