Happy with my cruisers and science ships, I found it almost impossible to really control to speed of my escort ships with E and Q. My ships flew too fast 
or too slow :oops: but never :thumb: smoothy...
This evening I retuned the (for me) over-responsive drive of my Manticore by rebinding e & q.
I went to space and typed these commands into the chat window:
/bind e "throttle_adjust 0.1"
/bind q "throttle_adjust -0.1"
This changed throttle up/down from default 25% to 10%
I also repurposed PageUp and PageDown (zoom in/out - I zoom with mouse wheel, never use these) to full throttle and full stop:
/bind PageUp "throttle_adjust 1.0"
/bind PageDown "throttle_adjust -1.0"
and set my gamepad to have these left of Q and right of E.
As reference I found this page at the "Federation Emergency Services" website very useful.
Overly eager to do these bindings, I first bound w (nose down) to throttle down. Which is not nice if you notice on patrol in system space. I repaired using the options menu, double clicked on the unbound ability, and hit the w key.
