I mixed things up and tried a few rounds of solo Vanduul Swarm on the PTU. It turns out the ESP steer-to-target assist option is really effective for fixed weapons with the Steam controller (gyro enabled). It makes it way easier to stay on the lead pip through turns. ESP works by making small helpful adjustments to your steering as long as you're already pretty close with your inputs, preventing slight overshoot for example.

Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4Yc2ljyQyE
I forgot to map my countermeasures and got taken out by the missiles onces the alphas showed up, ha. Really quick kill against Bloodhound at 15:45.
I'd really be cleaning up here if I could load some proper fixed weapons and working missiles. I just borrowed an m3a from my Merlin for the nose slot since no one's playing public games to get REC.
Since the Steam controller still can't be combined with the pedals yet, I'm still using that setup where my right analog trigger is my forward thrust. It turns out I did manage to get used to it after all. Still would rather use the pedals, but this is pretty good.
