T2 is originally bound to "Landing Gear".

Flight Miscellaneous > Toggle Frame Shift Drive = Joystick toggle button 1 down (T2) (default = T3).

This control mapping allows you to engage supercruise no matter what your current target is. Then afterwards you have to retarget the desired distant star system. With normal control mappings you have to select a different target, one that is in the local system, in order to be able to engage supercruise. It is usually most efficient to go to supercruise in order to maneouver into a position where the distant system is no longer obscured. However, the attempt to initiate the FSD fails if the target system is obscured behind another astronomical body.

It's possible to jump to a distant star system directly from normal flight, i.e.

J is originally bound to "Toggle frame shift drive".

Flight Miscellaneous > Supercruise = J (default = none).

T1 is originally bound to "Cycle next fire group".

Miscellaneous > Landing Gear = Joystick toggle button 1 up (T1) (default = T2).

Toggles between Combat Mode and Analysis Mode.

Mode Switches > Switch Cockpit Mode = H (default = M, X52PROB16).

4 is originally bound to "Systems Panel".

Mode Switches > Comms panel = 4 (default = 2).

Since I am a Solo player I use the Systems panel much more frequently than the Comms panel, so I want it to be bound to a key that is closer to the the one I use for the Target panel (the panel used most frequently).

Mode Switches > Systems Panel = 2 (default = 4).

M is originally bound to "Switch Cockpit Mode".

Mode Switches > Open System Map = M (default = none).

G is originally bound to "Galaxy Cam Pitch Down".

Mode Switches > Open Galaxy Map = G (default = none).

In case it should ever become necessary, here's a short guide how to disassemble the Joystick.

Ironically, I found this KB article that lists joysticks tested by Frontier Development on the Mac only after I had bought the Saitek X52 Pro.Įdit: Here's a YouTube video showing how to disassemble the throttle - I needed to do this to remove a piece (the so-called "detent") that had broken lose inside the throttle case, which was causing my throttle to be blocked sometimes at the zero position and sometimes at the full throttle position. Elite: Dangerous even has a built-in set of control mappings for the X52 Pro which I only had to adapt a little bit. As it turned out, my conclusions were correct and the joystick worked in a true plug'n'play fashion. In the end I decided to go for the Saitek X52 Pro, because I found a few hints that it might work on the Mac, and since it was an established product (I think the year of first manufacture was 2007) I reckoned that I would have found more explicit information if it didn't work on the Mac.

For instance, the Saitek X52 Pro product page lists Windows in the system requirements but not Mac OS X, but on the other hand it mentions X-Plane 10 for Mac under "Flight Simulation Software Compatibility". The question was: Which model should I buy? This question was not an easy one because I had to find a joystick that would work on the Mac, but the information which models work on which platforms was not readily available, or confusingly presented. When my mouse hand started to have cramps I finally knew that I had to get a joystick.
