So one problem is fixed and it causes another one...

I need to have "Use POV as regular buttons" option on the Joystick Configurator screen checked in order for my fighter to NOT endlessly spin when I start.

The problem now is whenever I tap a key on the keyboard, the view in the cockpit "rotates" a few degrees up with every keypress. No keypress seems to "rotate" the view back.

Any idea what's going on and how to fix it? Thanks.

Hello,
Is Rudder enabled in the in-game menu?

Same issue as the OP above.

Greetings! A bit of a thread resurrection but I wanted to add my solution to this problem as I was encountering the same issue. What finally worked for me was in the Joystick configurator, I un-assigned all of the POV hat commands (0, None, No Function) then I could uncheck the "Use POV Hat as Buttons" and have the rudder enabled in the in game menu. Not having the POV hat assigned on my joystick is not a deal breaker as I use a gaming keypad for that function. No endless cockpit spinning, no view up on every keypress, and I have my rudder.
