From a QCAD user:
How can I change the distance the selection is moved when pressing the arrow keys?

You can adjust it under

Edit > Application Preferences > Edit > Move > Move Step

You can also define multipliers for Shift+Arrow and Alt+Arrow, for example to move twice or ten times as much with Shift or ten times less with Alt.
