Is it possible to get joystick, throttle control and all buttons to work with Pioneer? I found only axis settings, but they did not work.

Thrustmaster T Flight HOTAS X work with Pioneer?
Re: Thrustmaster T Flight HOTAS X work with Pioneer?
You can't set axes to the translation controls (yet, hopefully), so no throttle control. Buttons should work (they do for me, same stick).

Yeah, throttle axis isn't possible, but all thrusters can be mapped. I'm using a joystick plus buttons on a steering wheel plus buttons on a shifter. I use the hat switch on my joystick for the translation thrusters (up/down/left/right), then two buttons next to the hat switch for forward/backward thrusters. I have an old version of Joy2Key running so that I can map the landing gear to a button as well (hopefully that will be mappable within the game at some point). The hat switch on my shifter unit is used for views, and a few other buttons scattered about for various things (buttons on my wheel for time acceleration, for example).
The only thing you really can't do with a controller setup is adjust the low-thrust level. You still need to use the mouse for that, which is really annoying because the only time you really need to adjust the low-thrust level is precisely when you can't afford to be taking your hands off the stick! I think the easiest solution to this would be to have the set-speed adjustment buttons (which are mappable) also be used for adjusting low-thrust level whenever set-speed mode isn't active.
