Control Layout on a Gamepad

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, first post by a long-time lurker.

I recently acquired a USB gamepad that is laid out just like a PlayStation controller, and was thinking about how I could use it in KSP. Obviously you can't play the entire game with so few buttons, but you can certainly cover all of the basic flight controls. How would you guys make use of it? Here's what I was thinking:

Left Analog - Pitch and Yaw

Right Analog - Roll and Camera zoom

D-Pad - move camera

R1 and R2 - Decrease/Increase throttle

L1 and L2 - Switch active vessel

"X" button - Stage

"Square" button - Toggle SAS

"Circle" button - Toggle RCS

"Triangle" button - Kill Throttle

R3 (Press right analog in) - Alt key, mostly for adjusting trim

L3 - Toggle fine control

What are your thoughts? Did I miss any critical functions? Again, I know I'll never be able to play keyboard-free, that's not the point. I just like the idea of being able to lean back while flying a plane or executing a burn.
