Here is my setup for those that have the same joystick and want to use it to fly helos and jets. I will list the function and then button/axis to input. The actual name that shows up in the key bindings will be different because the game thinks it is a gamepad not a joystick.
The first is throttle- push up on throttle button for increase and then in next center it then push down to decrease. It will come up as trigger 1 and 2.
yaw right and left- use rotation right and left respectively. It will display as rot z+ and z-.
pitch up and down- assign it to axis 1y, I use back as up and forward as down but you can do it the other way.
roll right and left- assign to axis1x, same at above if your on the right box push right. You only have to assign one it assigns the other automatically.
afterburner- I use the button 3, it will list as pad left.
toggle chase view- I assigned the pov up which will display pov 1N. this doesnt work in hardcore btw.
fire- I assign to the trigger button which displays as pad up.
reload- I assign to button 6 which displays as button 1.
switch weapons- I assign to button 5 but will display as button 4.
fire countermeasures- I assign button 4 which displays as pad right.
enter/exit- I assign to the side joystick button but will display as pad down.
switch seats (helo only)- I assign to pov left which will display as pov1w.
All the other entries in the joystick column should be cleared. If you dont know how to do this you select that box press and hold esc till the entry clears. It doesnt matter what the other columns have in them as long as you are just using the joystick. I dont use the free look but you could I guess assign it to the mouse while your flying though that could get complicated. If anyone else uses it for land or vehicles, you just have to make sure none of the buttons overlap in a given tab with exception of the common tab; if you use a key on the common tab you cant reuse it on the other tabs. Hope this helps those that want to use joysticks. If you have any problems understanding or making it work, just let me know and I'll help you through it on ts.
