The P-38 is one of the easiest planes to taxi and the rudder steers it just fine. However, if you want to do a really sharp turn then rudder+brakes helps. At the risk of being facetious, if it goes round and round then you have only one engine working properly. If indeed both are running then check the pitch - fully forward for both engines.

Thanks for the reply so how do's the front wheel steer is it linked to the rudders ?

 

I have just tried the P39 and that steers ok

The P38 has a castoring nosewheel, which means you need to steer with different engine power/wheelbrake. If you only go round and round check that you have both engines active.
