Elite Dangerous Flight Assist Off Tips – Control Settings

Tutorial. HOTAS, gamepad, mouse keyboard, dual joystick setup recommended input controls to be able to perform FA-off (Flight-Assist Off) maneuvers.

6 degrees of freedom on different input devices.

Part 1 in a series of videos. Very basics – essentially – don’t press the FA-off button until you’ve got all your flight controls ready.

Why use a mouse with pitck-yaw instead of pitch-roll? Though mostly a personal preference issue I find with a mouse our minds are used to it moving a cursor or a crosshair up down left and right. FA-off requires control of small movements around the centre position, I find if trying this with pitch-yaw instead of pitch-roll helps keep the ship under control better.
