This is specific to the preview version of Elite: Dangerous on Xbox One – on PC this appears to be J, but obviously that doesn't apply to the Xbox controller.
In one of the training missions you hyperspace to the next system and then use your Frame Shift Drive (FSD) to travel to a nearby station.
However, once you get there you don't seem to be able to get out of FSD, you just zoom around the destination. If you use the A+Up to exit you drop out wherever you are – many minutes or hours away at normal speeds.
When you are close to the station and travelling below C you seem to get a prompt at the bottom of the screen SAFE DISENGAGE READY, but there's no indication or help in game as to how you action that. There doesn't appear to be a binding in any of the controls or options indicating how you carry out a safe disengage (or even what a safe disengage is).
How do I action that prompt?

When you're approaching the station or wherever you want to leave FSD make sure your speed and distance markers on the scales at the bottom left of the screen are roughly aligned. Thus, as you approach the target, your speed and distance markers fall together. Once both are in the blue section of the scale, you should get the 'safe to disengage' warning. As soon as you do, hit the A button and D pad up. It's the same as the engage super cruise engage button. You should then emerge close to your target. Now have you got any idea how on earth you attack another ship when you're in super cruise????
