This worked for me, so it should work.
And then for throttle you use Thrust Axis.

I'm glad I chose to get a month of Game pass to try this first. Oddly, this game doesn't seem to have any joystick profiles set so you have to manually setup the joystick. I followed a guide on youtube to find out how. The controls are almost impossible to use. The plane just swings madly around while the on screen yoke tries to follow my joystick input but fails massively. It is unplayable.
Not just that but it takes ages to load. Probably 10 minutes sometimes.

My Thusmatser T Flight Hotas 1 worked and everything was mapped right away
Just to balance it out a bit, i've had zero issues with the steam version and with the flight model set to realistic and my controls setup properly It's a blast and has been well worth the money. Within the first hour it trumped years of X-Plane 11 frustration.
Hope you guys get to the bottom of your issues or come back for another crack at it in the future when patches have been applied.

I have that joystick. Nothing was mapped. I just noticed it was in PS3 mode. I'll try it again.
Mine doesn't take long to load

That sorted it. Now it shows correctly and functions as it should. Nice, thanks for that. It loaded a bit quicker too.
Squirrel's posted a patch video, I love his YouTube content!

Also check out SteveO if you fly the TBM.
He flies the older model but goes through things.

If I was a multi muillionaire that's all I would do, so relaxing and rewarding
Thrustmaster hotas 4 purchased yesterday and 5 long hours of downloading and all is good! Had a good flight from Exeter over Dartmoor and around the coast and what can I say... love it!!! Doubt my missus will though..
*edit* one thing that’s annoying though - how do you set weather to be “local” as default? Seems to default to clear skies for me

Really? I find him so boring - and a lot of the time he doesn't know what he's talking about.
I've been enjoying GripperSim's tutorials - https://www.youtube.com/c/ReactionReview/

Anyone else experience a bug with the ATC where you'll do a flight following or tune to a tower and then won't be able to tune to another tower? The UI acts like it it's an uncontrolled airport / airfield where you have to make announcements on your position.

Thats pointed me in the direction I needed to go rather than the blind alley I was up, wow! this is epic with the stick - previously, I'd been flying via keyboard.https://imgur.com/a/ZjiiVvx

Hi Micheal, Really? Pretty sure Squirrel has a PPL? Thanks for the link to grippersim though mate! Subscribed.

You're very welcome mate!
When I got it working yeah I couldn't believe the difference even compared to a controller.
Did you get the throttle sorted too?
Amazing thing,well built!
I have actually bought a yoke, it's made me want more!
Soldato
Does he? Surprising - he always comes across like he's just read stuff on Wikipedia, dunno why. GripperSim is an instructor IIRC, and has a great sense of humour.

Crossposted from the Screenshot thread - why on earth is this 3.6GB?! It's not Heathrow or JFK.

Me too! He's really good at what he does. Can sit and watch him for hours!
