really simple answer...first officer doesn't have a tiller, and yet he takes off. two people dont have control of the plane at once...hence the positive exchange of flight controls. so no, you do not need the tiller for t/o, and 80 knot calls have nothing to do with it.

nose wheel steering
The A300/A310 rudder pedal steering is limited to 6 degrees
The tiller can control nose wheel steering to 65 degrees either side and is not normally used on takeoff. When disconnected (a maintenance/ground crew function) the nosewheel may be deflected 95 degrees under tow.

I only use the tiller in cruise flight at speeds of .76 or greater.
After reading all the other posts in here, I thought this was some kind of a contest to see how stupid of a comment you could make about the tiller.

Personally I only use the tiller when I'm in the 727 sim, because that's the only time I've touched one(and that's been 4+yrs ago). Ah to fly planes that don't have one, such simplicity!
