Elite Dangerous seems ostensibly simple, but there is a steep learning curve. Picking the right [[Ships|ship]], [[outfitting]], [[Vehicles|vehicle]], [[Ship-Launched Vessels|vessel]], [[:Category:Handheld Tools|tools]], [[suits]] for an activity requires intermediate knowledge. Becoming proficient at a [[Careers|career]] takes tens of hours of practice. Mastering the flight controls, navigation, ship and on foot combat, system management and procedures to get the best results requires over 100 hours of hands-on experience. | |||
[[Flight Model|Flight mechanics]] and controls use physics with a fly-by-wire system. This requires precise throttle, directional management and memorizing the sheer volume of keybinds. Disabling [[Flight Assist]] allows near Newtonian flight. Learning a HOTAS setup (Hands-On Throttle-And-Stick) or a gamepad, keyboard + mouse takes a substantial time and dedication due to the sheer volume of buttons and keybinds. | [[Flight Model|Flight mechanics]] and controls use physics with a fly-by-wire system.
