Too sensitive of the wheel steering?

Hi!

I have a question and may need help here. I find that the nose wheel steering seems very sensitive?

Every time when I land and touch down, I have a tough time trying keep my aircraft roll straight. I have to struggle with the nose wheel steering in order to keep a proper path. Sometimes I crash because I roll out of the runway and hit the buildings or terrain near the runway.

Is there any way I can do better for this? 

ps. I just landed safely although a little bit hard in Lukla airport, but I could not control the nose wheel so it hit the houses next to the runway so I crashed...:wacko:

Hi divinglyc,

This matter has been already discussed here : 

Perhaps yaw axis may be tuned a little bit. But as written in Daher's POH, the solution is to make only slow adjustments of power ; 50% torque on brakes and increase power  smoothly on take-off, decrease it slowly on landing.
