Mouse + Throttle Doesn't Work

Maybe I'm just weird, but every since Star Citizen, I've been flying with a Throttle + Mouse, instead of a stick. I'm just used to mouse more I guess, easier to aim for me. Well in every other game this works fine. But for some reason, Squadrons decided that wasn't the best way to play? Any ideas or work arounds... I suppose I could trick it into thinking my mouse is a stick... or my Throttle is my keyboard... but that's a lot of work.

My testing/results:

Playing with Keyboard + Mouse, you can fly around and mash A+D to roll, works flawlessly.

Playing with Throttle + Mouse, if you don't touch the mouse, you can throttle up, and rock back and forth with my roll axis....(I have the thrustmaster with the roll bar on the front), works flawlessly, however, the second you move the mouse, you stop rolling, the second you start rolling again with throttle the mouse locks to middle and you stop turning. So you can use the throttle + mouse, but NOT AT THE SAME TIME! lol.

Basically what it appears happens is when you use a mouse input, it ASSUMES you are using keyboard + mouse, and diverts all keys to only accept k/b+m. When I use the throttle, it then thinks I'm on a full HOTAS and ignores all mouse inputs that we on going.

My test... Fly straight, hold roll on throttle, turn with mouse, roll stops. Start rolling with throttle turning stops.

PLEASE FIX!!!!
