Part of that will determine how your team/driver wants to control the robot.
My team has used mecanum for a number of years now with two joysticks. One joystick essentially provides arcade drive (y-axis controls forward/back, x-axis controls rotation), and the second joystick provides strafe on the x-axis. You don't need to disable the y-axis on the second joystick, you simply don't use any of the values it gives you.
There are of course other control options that would require tweaking this a little. How are you planning on controlling it?
