I switched to L1/R1
Using the default L2/R2
I still keep airbrakes on L2/R2, because I've switched left/right with L1/R1 (in PS4 Accessibility settings). You know, for blazing fast barrel rolls.
Ive switched back to L1/R1 and dpad in year 2097
I found Zone mode unplayable with L1/R1 as airbrakes so stuck to the default. In the PS1 games and BallisticNG you have a lot of control by pushing airbrakes for short periods of time but here if you push the button all the way down (seems hard to control on ps4 pad) it does almost an immediate 30 degree turn which is a bit much. If there was some way to do slighter turns with L1/R1 I'd switch back, I liked how they worked in the older games.
Been using R2/L2 at 100% sensitivity since 2009, with the analogue stick
I switched it to L1/R1 off the rip.
I used to use L1/R1 on HD/Fury, but on Omega I've kept it on L2/R2 and just dropped the sensitivity to 80%. I found the triggers on the DS4 to be easy to keep a grip on and in most cases I'm only after a light tap to get the tail of the craft to turn in. I'm finding it far easier to prevent myself accidentally sideshifting too.
I switched to L1/R1 in Omega, because double tapping triggers (sideshifting) is not convenient for me.
I wish there were a way to bind airbrakes to both L1/L2 and R1/R2 !
Anyway, I think I used the same setup in HD/Fury and probably before that.
I would add that barrel rolls and pitch adjustments are difficult for me due to the d-pad (I haven't bothered to try analog).
By far, my favourite device for playing was an arcade stick (=> no analog), unfortunately, I don't have an adapter for PS4 yet.

How do you use R1 and L1 for barrel rolls? Do you remap the dpad to L1 and R1? But still use the analog stick for steering?
R2 L2 here, and i use dpad too, sticks 2 hard
