What's that thing between our legs?!

As far as I know it was removed in 1.5 so currently no need to worry about it. It's function was most likely rolled into the new planetary HUD stuff.No!Get your mind out of the gutter! You know what I'm asking about.
What is that thingy that looks like a tablet mounted between our pilots legs? Is it a screen? If so, why is it always disabled? Is it, perhaps, something else? What is it?!

It's a quad. You should grow one, too.
Yeah but maybe it was supposed to PROJECT the holo display? The same way that the big circle in our cockpit is projecting the radar.
No!

Slamming on the reverse thrusters without engaging the safety harness in the pilot's chair could be somewhat invigorating, I imagine. LOL

It's obsolete placeholder, you can now use it like this.
As to the question of what the pad was going to be used for, and FD initially and repeatedly answering that it would be used in future, it seems to have been ditched as shown in the latest video from DB, so I reckon we'll never know if it wasn't intended for the SRV/landing interface.
However, I'd assume from the holographic projection in the video that there was too much information to try and fit it all on the pad's area, and probably made harder to read in VR which might affect their ability to claim a well designed implementation of support with Vive/Oculus over the next season.
