Walk Around movement can be configured in different ways.
Move Forward
Move Forward Left
Move Forward Right
Move Backward
Move Backward Left
Move Backward Right
Strafe Left - Slide left
Strafe Right - slide right
These are not natural walking methods.
The most natural is the Camera control, Rotate Axis which allows the
view to change with the movement like in real life walking.

Are the joystick controls referring to an Xbox controller?
Flight Stick
VKB Gladiator NXT Axis FS2024 Controls
X - Right/Left L Axis X - Ailerons (Pitch)
Y - Forward/Backward L Axis Y - Elevator (Roll)
Z - Throttle L Axis Z - Throttle
Rot X - POV Right/Left R Axis X
Rot Y - POV Forward/Backward R Axis Y
Rot Z - Rotate (Yaw/Rudder) R Axis Z Rev
Being able to change direction only with the mouse is very inconvenient for me.
You can’t assign an axis or button to change direction.
I play in VR.

You can move as listed above with the joystick forward or backward
while the camera view is changed with the joystick twist.
With this, you can walk around the airplane like normal
and not slide left or right.

Thank you. Problem solved.
There are two ROTATE X AXIS in General,
and it was the one at the bottom that showed up in the search.
I can not find these settings. I want to bind them to my joystick. Where to look?
Set filter to all and then scroll down to Player Character.
For natural movement, walk with fwd/bkwd with the stick moving fwd/bkwd
and the rudder moves the walk left/right while the rudder also moves the camera view left/right as you walk.
In my case, rudder is stick twist.

Take Control of Character starts Walk Around.
3rd Person view is behind character
Enable 3rd Person via Settings, General, Advanced Options = Allow 3rd person view camera
To display 3rd Person = Backspace key *
- Keyboard 2024 Transversal only - it is not a control
- cannot be mapped to a button
Take Control of Character = 26
Toggle Crouch = 21
Toggle Run = 22
CAMERA
Camera - Rotate X Axis = JOYSTICK R Axis Z Rev
MOVEMENT
Move Fwd/Bwd Axis = JOYSTICK L Axis Y Rev
Move Left/Right Axis = JOYSTICK R Axis Z Rev
Edit:
Also the Camera controls for the mouse will affect the walking if you move your mouse while walking.
It is best to delete these controls.
Thanks Ron, everything working except the camera-rotate x-axis.
