A flight joystick
- This might help. I use a ps3 type gamepad controller but the workaround also worked with a joystick.

It does not work. When I plug my flight controller while the game is launched, nothing works at all. Like if the game doest not notice it is plugged.
If you don't already, maybe try installing a 3rd party device mapping tool like I use (Pinnacle Game Profiler, Padstar, Joy2Key) and leave the settings at default. PGP seems to recognize when a controller is hot-plugged in and I've tried it with a gamepad and an old joystick. Another reason it works for me might be that my devices are using native windows drivers.
The workaround can help but this seriously needs fixing fast because the game is crippled for some players.

I use the default logitech profiler.
You think I shall use another one ?
Try anything and everything because official help seems to be a long way off. You can always back-up, uninstall and reinstall the Logitech profiler if it doesn't work. The only drawback is Joystick support in other games will probably break but you can set-up profiles for those too.

The pinnacle game profile enables me to emulate an Xbox 360 Controller. And when I set up the game in left hand mode, I can control the aircraft.
But it seems the other input are not working properly. Some of them do the same action, some do nothing.
In the edit settings menu, it does not detect when I press a button, and when you try to assign an action to an already used key, you have an error message.

please it is still not working.. I can't play anymore...
Have you tried to plug the controller prior to game launch? My gamepad is a bluetooth device that goes off after a while, and if I turn it back on the game does not recognized it. The only way it works is by turning it on before the game and never let it go off.

It is a wired flight joystick so yes it it plugged prior to game launch.
And every other game can detect it properly.
It is very linked to the last update it seems.
