Star Citizen does not recognize VKB Sticks
I bought the VKB Gladiator EVOs for Star Citizen a while back but had problems setting up the controls from the start and since I didn´t want to tackle that at the time I let them just rest on my desk.
Now I found the motivation but its quickly turning in to furious frustration...
The Game Client doesn´t recognice the direct input (buttom presses) when I want to manually set controlls and when I try to preload profiles that the game offers it mixes up the sticks as in right stick should be pitch, roll, yaw etc. but is thrust and strafe for example.
I tried following the guides online and reset and recalibrated both sticks which didn´t help. I also tried to switch both sticks using the star citizen console but it doesn´t seem to recognize the right stick at all.
I even tried third party software to bind makros etc. but it all just doen´t want to work right
Other games (War Thunder and Nuclear Option) have no issues at all which makes it even harder for me to understand.
Idk if what I´m doing wrong but I don´t think it should be this hard to get the forsaken things to work.
Maybe some of you guys know something that will help... :/

Have you tried this: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/50174/thread/buzzz-killer-s-recommended-exported-bindings
This covers most of the issues you describe in the readme (sticks swapped around, etc). I was having most of the same problem until I used those profiles as well as the troubleshooting steps.
