One-Stick Driving preset
This preset ships inside InputConfig, free on the Mac App Store. You don't have to make an account, there are no subscriptions, and nothing is locked. Optimized for Apple silicon.
One-Stick Driving runs the whole car from one joystick, for the PlayStation Access Controller, the Xbox Adaptive Controller, or any single stick. Push forward to accelerate, pull back to brake, left and right to steer, and snap the stick back twice to shift into Reverse. Let go and the car slows on its own, the way a power chair stops when you release the stick.
The stick drives (see the One-Stick Driving section); sockets are handbrake, horn, boost, reset, gears, camera, rewind.
Where it is in the app
It ships in the Feature Showcases folder of the sidebar. Activate it, or press Edit to see every row. The file below is the same preset, inactive and ungrouped.

One-stick driving
This preset has one-stick driving switched on: the left stick steers by the A and D keys, forward presses W and back presses S, and 2 quick snaps back within 700 ms shift into reverse.
Notes
- The stick is not in the rows. The One-Stick Driving section at the bottom of the editor owns it: stick and slot, deadzone, steering and throttle curves, keys or mouse steering, the coast brake, and the reverse gesture.
- The rows are the buttons. They are handbrake, horn, boost, reset, gears, camera and rewind.
- Access Controller base profile. Only Cross (the center button), Circle (socket 5) and Options (socket 7) send.
- The game's own keys. Change the letters to match them.
Tune the stick in the One-Stick Driving section, not in the rows.
