srv help please srv has mind of its own
i read the post in here but nothings working. is there someone that has a pic or something of the default settings for the srv who as the odyssey ? i tried doing the training and still my srv settings or wiped out. also my srv likes to take off on its own if i stop i got to keep hitting the brakes and she starts up really fast. it is like my stop is 6mph with out hitting the throttle . i never had this problem into i installed odyssey. and now i can not even use the dang thing. i am not new to the srv just not ran the srv in a long time. last time i used it was to get some power cells. also i got got to say i am running a saitek x52.

In your keybinds settings, click the SRV button and then choose the X52 control scheme from the dropdown. It will only affect your SRV controls, not the rest of the game.

Also, always drive with drive assist off in the SRV.

Make sure you have analogue controls and settings. Also keep in mind, you're going faster than you might think over rough terrain with usually low gravity, its not like driving in Gran Turismo.

You might not think you're going fast at 30 m/s but that's 108 kph, which is a decent speed for a modern car driving on asphalt. Imagine now taking that car over very bumpy terrain and think what trying to drive at over 100 kph would be like!

Make sure you turn throttle control off when ever you get into your srv, I think it's the "Z" key otherwise you end up taking of like a banshee.

Drive Assist. Turn it off (there's a keybind option to hold or toggle it, you'll want it set to toggle).

It keeps your throttle at a set position, similar to cruise control. Which can be a massive pain in the ass when you're bouncing over rough terrain in 0.05G.

I found that setting pips to 1,4,1 helped keep things smoother.

Sometimes the SRV wants to surge (usually on ice/snow planets). You can reset it by throttling down to zero and then starting to accelerate again. Useful if you moving around in a tight spot.

If you use the analog throttle for the SRVs speed try to set a deadzone at the beginning.
Sometimes the Throttle doesn't go to zero, IMHO that happens if the throttle isn't on zero while starting the game.
That affects space ships too, but is less noticeable.

Moving the Throttle axis full up and down before launching the game helps sometimes.
Same problem with the rotaries of the X52pro and the small analog slider.
I use them for roll & yaw while in landing mode and for sensor range.

OP idk how far along you are with learning all controls, so maybe this can help:


EDRefCard
Create and optionally publish a graphical reference card for your Elite: Dangerous keyboard and controller bindings.
