Startup has me looking straight up into space!

[motch]

Hello.. looking for some help-
When I start the game, all good.  Everything works like normal (love the graphics and menu selections).  But once I go to fly, the thing starts and I'm looking straight up, through the canopy.. into Space!
If I look left or right, it turns the view.  But even when I try to look "forward" it only switches views for a split second and then I'm looking up and outside again.

Using the Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS system with a new AVA joystick.  For the record, when I switch to IL-2 Great Battles, everything works fine.  Same in DCS and MSFS2024.   Something is off on the IL-2 Korea and wondering if anyone has a suggestion. Hope I don't have to delete the whole thing, and restart the installation as it was a pain to begin with!

Thanks
Motch

Have you set any custom camera views? This can sometimes cause problems.

Have not... and tried F10 after viewing forward for a split sec, no joy

When looking from External Camera?!

Is there a way to delete all three devices (Rudders, Throttle and Joystick) and then reload them?

Update!
Having scrolled the threads, and searched the internet- I removed the three devices from the program menu, then unplugged them.. then restarted the game!

When I went to fly anything, yupe.. all worked (looked) as it was suppose to.  But needed to "fly" with the keyboard.
Shut down again, plugged all three devices back in and restart.

Now it had me go through the process to map the keys (though, it auto found the Virpil Pedals).  
Most of it works now.  I say "most" as I've flown a few missions with the -86 and it didn't always start up with me looking straight out the front of the canopy.  Also, sometimes in flight the view of the cockpit shifts a little but am able to get it back to forward looking.

Still not as user friendly as IL2 Great Battles, but then again it's Early Access and hopefully it gets some of these bugs worked out by the time it has it's full release~

Thanks everyone
