Does anyone have a good recomendation hwo to taxi to park position and back to the take off point? 

experimented with tail wheel locked and drivting . But if you cant take the plane completely arround you can get stuck on that tiny deck pretty easily 😞

The taxi behavior compared to other warbirds in sim is definitely bizarre- especially in regards to the tail-wheel and wheel brakes.

I have trouble turning on one wheel (L or R toe brake held down) and the plane doesn't want to pivot around the axis even with tailwheel unlocked. 

every other tail dragger doesn't have this problem. U need to move forward and hit the L/R brake in the intended direction which can be a pain when space is limited. 

I can taxi a P51 and P47 with ease, they behave as you'd expect. Hopefully the ground handling can be looked over, especially the brakes. They seem to just lock up and make a tire skid and screech even at slow speeds, so when u try to hold either side L/R, it wants to skid/drag forward instead of pivoting upon the axis.

Try using that big rudder and prop to get the plane rotating in a tight circle.

See if that works for you.

Yeah it seems kinda like both brakes engage partially when you hit L or R. It arrests movement.  Hopefully will be revised soon.

Instructions unclear- made a left turn off the deck and decapitated 3 midshipmen in the machine gun row 💔

Taxi behavior is still bugged.  Any wind over 7 knots will prevent you from turning away from it.  The weather vaning effect is exaggerated.  This was reported several patches ago but Mag3 seems uninterested in fixing it.  You will be unable to turn 180 degrees on a moving carrier deck until it is fixed.
