It has to be very slight ruddering, kind of like a spastic monkey at the controls. What I normally do given the lack of wheel brakes is line up on the runway at the end of the mission, cut power, throw it into a slip (full rudder either direction, aileron the other direction, just enough to keep you going straight even though the plane is cocked a little), then try and get on the ground no faster than 90mph. Once I get down, I sit here and rock my fingers back and forth on the Ace Edge just enough to drop extra speed. Around 65mph I gradually start pulling back on the stick hoping desperately to slow down a little more. You have to hit the runway at the very edge and have your right wing slightly high to avoid the little hut, and you will stop about 2' from the end, but you will stop. This works at least 75% of the time, with a margin of error +/- 70%. (laugh before you start bitching about that last statement people)
