Hardware & Technical HOTAS downtime: any advice for a newbie game pad user?

[Strangepork]

Help. I'm rubbish.

Any tips on the use and setup of an xbox 360 controlled on PC.

It's clear perspex and has blue LEDs inside though!

Thanks.

I use mostly default context controls, i think. (Not home)

After that, just take the time to get used to it.

Left thumb stick click offers alternative controls for the right stick, which can be handy for docking.

You can map both the thrusters and the pips to the directions if you enter button plus d pad for, say, thruster movement.

Sorry if I haven't explained that we'll, I'm awfully hungover and ants are nibbling my nuts.
