not sure about that plane
but , steering is using the twist
and L or R brake and L or R
throttle, going slow is the key
to good turns,
you can reassign keys to make
it easier, I use the side to side
arrows to use L or R brake
and you can select engine

:D :D
Hope this helps;

I prefer using the handle twist to steer.  You can also just tilt the joystick left and right if you don't have/like to use the handle twist.  Using just the L or R brakes and also the L or R engines work too.

I have found that by twising the stick, that controls the rudders.  If I twist the stick and then move the stick in the direction of the turn, this will turn the plane tighter.  I don't know why, and this doesn't happen with all aircraft, but seems to work on most.  Must be taking the wind correction over the wings into account....

Make sure you have Autorudder disconnected in realism options if you're using a twist grip (or anything else solely for rudder/nosewheel steering).
