Discussion Saitek X52/Pro Elite Setup 2.0 installation video released!

My new version 2.0 Elite setup for the Saitek X52 has now been released. This is big news for the X52 player community. This is a service I provide for FREE to the ED community. It's my way to give back. This is THE way to play Elite Dangerous and is the pinnacle of joystick setups at this time. I just want everyone to have the best experience possible with the hardware they already have(Saitek X52/Pro).
What is it? A complete HOTAS setup that removes the need for a keyboard as every function in the game, bar none, is programmed directly into controllers. This is especially great for VR where they can't look down to the keyboard. Everything can be controlled by touch. This is also useful for everyone else as well... as looking down in combat, even for a second, can get you killed.

FYI... 2.0 new features.
The new version is 100% compatible with HCS Voice Packs.
Features 9 axis of controls including lateral and vertical thrusters with dynamic controls.
Introduces Push to talk and Microphone Mute capabilities.
Includes all of the commands for fighters now.
Includes all of the latest added commands in 2.2 like "Charge ECM".

As always... it works with VR, TrackIR, and incorporates a built in head look with the X52's built in mouse controls. That's great for players who don't have VR or TrackIR.

The tutorial videos for 2.0 are not online yet. They will be coming soon.

I own the X52 Pro. I was working with a reddit user before to get the 1.0 version working for the Standard X52(non-pro). I haven't been able to get in touch with him. I'm looking to get someone with the standard stick to get in touch with me so we can get 2.0 up and running for them as well. It would probably require about 30ish minutes of their time... maybe an hour max.
 
Really enjoy your v1 version. I actually integrated it with this excellent VA profile (https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...rofile-sharing?highlight=voice+attack+profile) to work together along with EDDI. I also pulled in some VA custom controls for Galaxy map route control (from Ocellus vap excluding plugin) for added spice!
Will have to take a new look at v2 to see what is there. Indeed, I do like the use of the rotaries for the thrust control. I did see in a compare of the bindings where these are applicable. May try to merge those in to see if it will fit in my custom v1 version.

All in all, great profile and enjoy it for hands free from keyboard use!
 
Let's have a conversation on TeamSpeak sometime....

sounds good, or perhaps we can meet up sometime in the bubble for an in-game tagup to review what I have. Perhaps I can pack what I have now (custom bind, vap, and EDDI personality) for you to try out. Only requires latest EDDI plugin to be loaded in VA.
