Post your Joystick Bindigns


Recommended Posts

Not really joystick but xbox style gamepad (and it's fairly awesome for this)

Triggers (edit config for axis 2) - Inc Throttle.

Bumpers - Roll

Back - toggle RCS

Start - toggle SAS

Right stick - Pitch & Yaw.

Right stick click - Translate Forward

Dpad - translate up-down, left-right

Left stick - camera control

Left stick click - Translate backward

Y - precision control toggle

X - cut throttle

A - Brakes (on my dropship I set the action group to toggle my nuke rocket engines so I can get a lot of power momentarily if I need it)

B - Stage

I've been having trouble getting the controls to work predictably for Kebals on EVA but still working on it.

I set the stick axes so it turns the navball the way I expect. So, if I push up on the right stick on launch that would turn my ship north, right to the east, left west, down south. Then the bumpers rotate the navball around the heading marker.

My bindings probably won't be too useful for you, since I use Pinnacle Game Profiler in tandem with KSP, and I use a different joystick, but it's worth noting that you want different bindings for planes and rockets. If you're flying planes, bind roll to your horizontal axis and yaw to your twist axis. For rockets, you want it the other way round.

You probably won't be able to bind everything to your joystick, unless you use a 3rd party program like Pinnacle to set up modifier keys, so just bind the important thigs you'll need quick access to, like staging, throttle, SAS and RCS toggles, etc.

You use the left stick for camera control? I'd have bound the right one to that myself.

I'll get a picture so I can show you, I am using one as well and it is a dream.

You may have to invert the throttle control.

The fine tune key is map view, and the two keys below that are timewarp.

Saitek X52 Pro. This thing has a separate throttle block, three 8-way hat switches, two analog dials and a slider on the throttle, and 3 axis stick control. Also has a dual stage trigger, pinkie trigger, button with safety cover, and 3 2-way toggle switch buttons on the stick base.

Here's an image so you can know how many buttons I have mapped.

PS34_X52Pro_Stick_throttle.jpg

Safety button (top center stick): stage

Button to the right of that: SAS

Button below that: RCS

trigger (second stage): switch rotation/translation in docking mode

center button on throttle: brakes

button inside small lower dial: gear

throttle top button: map

Left toggle switch down: abort

I haven't been playing with this since .22 so I can't remember all my keybinds.
