Recently I came across a used Belkin Nostromo N52TE Keypad or Speedpad. I found out that it had management software functioning under Linux.
It features:
14 digital keys
3-way wheel; fw,aft,click
4-way pad; up,dwn,lft,rgt
2 digital buttons

Also my Roccat Tyon mouse is working great. It also comes with Management software:

Good to know im not the only one using weird stuff 
I thought about getting one of these pads, too, but these prices… I have never spend more ten 20€ on a mouse or a keyboard and I never had any problems (except not excisting and not needed configuration tools for Linux, but since I can only change the color of my mouse and the buttons it is not needed)

Once you get used to it, it’s easy. Perfect balance between functionality of both arms

Did you assign all of the 17 switches?
two of my 16 are not assigned and 2 are for dpi up/down

I have a software that comes with the mouse to assign keys, combos etc so i don’t have to use 17 buttons, if i were to go pro i could switch between 4 profiles for 4 ship slots which is crazy convenient and everything is simplified which makes gaming easy in those cases. Plus i can save everything on my mouse memory directly so once set i can plug it in any computer without the need to set it up again.
Since im in filthy casual mode i just switched some functions from my left hand to right like the actives, scanner and the C for gate jumps and docking so i can freely navigate without worrying about missing an active mod button. Or in short, it’s cool bruh xd
