X52 Professional takes all the standout features from the original X52 to the next level. It’s specific purpose is to meet or exceed the demands of the best space and flight simulator pilots. I'm not a huge fan of wheel/pedals and I have other games I can use flight controllers for too (War Thunder!!!). is a fully integrated hands on throttle and stick flight controller.

That's why I am wondering about the joystick configurations. Recently tried the mouse steering and it sucked me back in. Played previous games but stayed away from this one after playing the demo when it first came out because the steering was just way too ridiculous without a wheel (more so than previous games in my opinion). Gotta say though thank god they added mouse steering. Can anyone confirm that the game controller/joystick configuration settings would work for this? Or would I be stuck with just assigning key shortcuts through my joystick driver (less useful because you don't get the minute movements this way, just hard left, hard right, floor it and slam the brakes). it would still be two separate 'joysticks' doing the same things as the traditional wheel and pedals, one to control throttle/brakes and one to control steering). My question is, has anyone tried using a flight controller joystick setup for ETS2? I would think essentially it would be the same as a wheel/pedals setup, just instead I would have a throttle controller and a joystick controller (i.e. I am looking at getting the Saitek X52 Pro Flight controller. I am getting an oculus rift here very shortly and am also in the market for a joystick, mainly for flight sims. Hey everyone, I have spent some time searching google and youtube but haven't found a definitive answer so I thought I would ask here.
