With a new Pilot profile the throttle and rudder controls are not defined by default. To use all the functions on your joystick, you must do the following:
Throttle
Go to Options > Control Config > Ship
Make a doubleclick on ABSOLUTE THROTTLE AXIS or select it and click BIND in the upper right corner.
Then move your throttle control on your joystick a litle bit. Now it should be binded to JOYSTICK Z AXIS.
Click ACCEPT now or read next step if you want to configure the rudder/twist function also.
Rudder/Twist
Go to Options > Control Config > Ship
Make a doubleclick on BANK AXIS or select it and click BIND in the upper right corner.
Rotate your joystick knob a little bit. Now it should be binded to JOYSTICK RY AXIS.
Click ACCEPT now. Read next step if you want to enable the joystick.
Enable Joystick
So WCS accept the joystick as input device, the mouse control must be deactivated:
Go to Options
Set MOUSE control to OFF
Click ACCEPT.
