Tosh. Always pull power to ground taxi, I say again about 10% Tq above MPOG. If you don’t, you cause stress on the strap packs.
Added for completeness Sloppy & LRP
8.25 TAXI
CAUTION
• Excessive cyclic displacement with low power settings will result in droop stop pounding.
• If forward cyclic inputs appear excessive while taxiing, increase collective as necessary. Appropriate collective setting is a function of cyclic displacement and surface conditions.
• Excessive forward cyclic displacement with low power settings will result in high strap pack loads.
