Sidewinder Precision Pro mapping schemes

[Kerad]

Anyone have a good button configuration for the Precision Pro joystick? I've been messing around with a few setups, but can't seem to find one that works perfectly. I use the throttle for speed, so I'd like to put the others to better use.

 

Thanks!

I have that joystick, and this is what I do:

 

Throttle - Throttle

Twist stick - Roll ship

Hat switch - Look around

Trigger - Fire weapon

Left thumb button - Roll ship/Target ship in front of you

Right upper thumb button - Target nearest enemy fighter (R on the keyboard)

Right lower thumb button - Target nearest enemy attacking you (E on the keyboard)

Arrow botton - Match speed of target

C button - Shields forward, back, or even (S on the keyboard)

B button - Laser energy to shields (shift-F10 on the keyboard)

A button - Shield energy to lasers (shift-F9 on the keyboard)

D button - 1/3 throttle ([ on the keyboard)

 

That last is important, because you can turn your fastest at 1/3 throttle.
