Plugging in a new flight stick (where you don't know the controls) and trying to use Oculus for the first time - GAH.You should just be able to move the 'bar' with the UI Left and UI Right keybinds. You might have to select it first with whatever you have bound to UI Select (usually trigger), the controls menu is annoyingly inconsistent - some of those types of settings you need to select first, others you don't.

I'm excited for you learning to fly FA Off. FA Off in VR is so liberating!
Once it clicks you don't even think about the controls. You really do become one with your ship. It's awesome!!!
Yeah, I have had to set a small deadzone for pretty much all of my joystick axis. I think they are becoming increasingly knackered. I don't care!
