Because the rudder has next to no influence on your direction at low speeds you need to use the brakes to turn.

Hope this helps.
Thanks Kingpinda,you little beauty,this works a treat,I've mapped my Warthog Hotas pinky button to the full wheel brake and now it's working as it would have done on those old Spits and Hurri's.

Brilliant,it really does turn when you want it too,taxiying is now very quick and easy,and I'm ready for the next 'Scramble',sooooo happy,
