Just add joysticks to the game. It taking yaw and pitch but cant strafe or rolling since it has it's limits. But this poses another issue, not being able to move your head when flying. And the solution to that is you have to press a button to toggle flying with joystick or hold a button down such as a mouse button when piloting with a joystick. ( I know its not the greatest solution but if there is and that could work please comment what it is) And these are more likely to be used in ships like fighters or smaller ships or basically any ship that does lots of maneuvering and not for large and bulky ships.
Solution to Adding Mouse Controls

You could use something like joy2key, then bind left/right to a roll lever and forward/backward to a pitch/yaw lever.
It would be as simple as:
- Download Joy2Key.
- Bind directions to respective WASD.
- Ships default to WASD for roll/pitch/yaw so you now have a joystick that works with default controls.
- If you want to have the joystick control different things or have more external controls you could just put those through Joy2Key as well or press TAB while in-game to rebind your ship controls to what you set for Joy2Key.
