Cannot retain cockpit look view settings

To re-create:

  1. From the Main Menu, choose an aircraft.
  2. Go to Controls.
  3. Set up Cockpit look left, cockpit look right, etc. In my case I’ve mapped them to the hat switch on my Logtech HOTAS. I’ve put Reset onto the top button on the joystick.
  4. Click the settings icon next to your joystick controller and click “Apply to all aircraft”.
  5. Go into a Free Flight.
  6. None of the controls you just configured will work. If you go into Settings from the flight and do it all again they will. Quit to Main Menu and try another flight, and it’s forgotten them again.

I followed your steps.
The controls are saved and work for me.
