Hello CMDRs,
Maybe you already have a set of DS4 controller bindings that you're happy with. If not, then try this... you might like it.
It's a tweaked and darn-near-perfected version of the one I posted here.
It works really well for simple flight, like exploration and mining. But in combat you'll also be able to execute FA off/on dogfighting maneuvers as well as anybody with a HOTAS, and you'll appreciate having unfettered access to your defenses (including ECM!) without having to change fire groups or interrupt your flying and shooting.
In any event, I've been at this for a while now, but even my obsessive-compulsions have limits. This one is the best I can do.
Enjoy,
SViking
