You are more than welcome though to change the joystick binds as and how you want I personally haven't, but that is because of how I learnt to play the game. Example T1 for switching fire control group, and the 'i' button for engine boost.That is actually the default bind on the X52 pro control scheme. But the HCS binds are goofing up some of my controls. So now in ED I have a new control set option for hcsX52-pro. But I need to learn the most basic at first. Is there an existing cheat sheet for the most common required Astra commands? The profile I imported had almost 1500 commands in total. Or do I need to edit the controls one by one in ED while I have the hcsX52 binds selected? Or can I somehow edit the hcsX52 binds (that is something I'm not sure how to do? Would I edit that in the saitek software?) Do I edit the saitek profile in their editor (create a modified or new profile for the x52pro). But now, what I'm asking is what is the smart way to proceed. I'm very new to ED and the X52 and voice attack. Example T1 for switching fire control group, and the 'i' button for engine boost. Then I copied "HCSPacks X52 Pro.binds" in the proper frontier folder. I installed voiceattack with ASTRA, I imported the "1.6.5 Full House Profile - HOTAS.vap" profile into voiceattack, set VA to active window. So in ED under controls I would select 'Saitek X52 pro' as the control defaults. This is all supported in game as well, no need to use any joystick software.I have ED with an X52-pro. And you can have multiple modifiers, so you can get many different functions on to a single button. You can use pretty much any of your joystick buttons as modifier keys (like the shift on your keyboard). If you're running out of buttons on the HOTAS, don't forget: Took me nearly 5 years, half a dozen joysticks, various other peripherals, to stop messing around with it lol and I'll probably tweak something else at some point. If you're anything like me, you'll probably play for a few hours, think "I'm using that button more than I thought I would, lets put it somewhere easier to reach quickly" and end up rebinding the lot again. Everything else just throw on whatever feels right for you. Get them on your stick/throttle controls so you don't have to use the keyboard in combat. Yeah focus on movement, targeting, offence and defence. Managed to get zooming around again yesterday but somethings I have to use the keyboard for. Plus you can edit them in Notepad so that is my next job. Files for Profiles are now called BINDS and are inside the game folders. Originally posted by Harpic1950:I have sorted this myself.
