Firstly welcome.

In Pacific Fighter (or any IL2) only 2DOF is recognised left/righ up/down.

The other 4DOF including Zoom are not possible within IL2 of any flavour. This is not a failing of TIR or Vector, it needs to be added by 1C Madox. It does not matter if you have all of the settings enabled within TIR's drivers/control pannel only up/down & left/right are used by IL2.

What you will find with running the Vector (6DOF) is that as 3 points of information is being used to calculate the way that you are looking, you will find that tracking within IL2 is more accurate and less effected by 'drift'. I have even gon to the shops anf forgotten to take my Vector off and come back, sat down and cariried on as if nothing had happened.

So whilst you might not get the directions of movement that you were expecting you will find the precision is much better with the Vector than without.
