Controls not sticking

[SpitFly]

I am relatively new to DCS and have some older and new controls and my commands are not sticking when opening to fly the Spitfire. One annoying problem is that i have 2 Saitek throttle  quadrants and one is set up with my throttle and prop pitch (RPM) and my Z axis is not usable as Mixture is either on or off and I have had to delete all commands in my 2nd quadrant ( or unplug it) and I have Saitek pro Combat Pedals and a Saitek Cessna trim wheel. I also have a new TotalCondttton Box with many options for selections.  I also fly spitfires in MSFX STEAM and MSFS2020 with no problems. I do save my commands upon entering them but the profile does not necessarily select the moat recent settings and as mentioned previously sometimes confused controllers. 

 

 I have looked at the on line tutorials and most are concerned with making the command selections ( buttons and Axis etc) and not much about the profiles that are saved for each controller and I had assumed that the latest would be called up when opening DCS to fly. I only fly the Spitfire at this point so it should not be so difficult but it is preventing me from flying consistently if at all.

 

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Your settings are saved when clicking the OK button for every controller at the same time, (not by saving a file. That file can be used for backup/export etc. though).

Wild hunch.
Check that you're not making changes to the "game profile" while flying the "simulation profile" or vice versa because "game mode" has been selected in settings.
