How can i make nose wheel steering working well? i cant turn the wheel. anyone can help me?

there is no nose wheel steering, you have to use differential braking to steer

how?

[Barro Roan]

by binding left wheel brake to your left toe brake on your rudder pedals and the right wheel brake to the right toe brake. then use the left wheel brake to turn left and the right brake to turn right. i don't have the c-101 but from the video i saw they said steering was different from the l39 and it used differential steering, so im only assuming it's going by the actual definition of differential steering.

Same as mig-15? and F-86

No, just toe brakes. Mig-15 does not have toe brakes. The left/right braking force distribution is made by rudder pedals.

In C-101 is not brake paddle but rudder pedals have toe brakes.

Pretty much already covered, but in a bit more detail...

The nose wheel on the C-101 is a free castor wheel. There is no "active" nose where steering, like on the F/A-18C. Instead, you use the brakes to steer... basically you apply some power to go forward but hold back one side a bit with the relevant brake. The brakes are on the rear wheels and the left and right brakes are separate.

If you are moving forwards and you tap the left brake, the aircraft will slow on that side only, the front wheel will picot and the aircraft will swing to the left. Vice-verse for the right. Apply both brakes if you wish to slow down but without turning.

You do not need to push the rudder left/right to steer (like you would on the L-39). The steering is done with the brakes (a bit more like a WW2 aircraft).
