Theres no way to bind the X56 in the game properly. Whenever I choose an axis it binds the mouse axis instead, and even if I somehow manage the axes properly the neutral position for the stick if far left far forward in the cockpit. Control setup wizard didn’t help either!
Have you installed the Logitech software and drivers correctly?

Downloading drivers, and understanding what ,Controls mode" with regards to mouse movement does fixed the issue. Currently binding everything. Thanks

X-56 Config
secondly what control scheme have you selected at the top?
Thirdly. Have you tried unplugging your mouse before configing the joystick? Sounds like you might have some minor drift on your mouse, so when you go to set an axis, its defaulting to selecting the mouse before the joystick
This sounds like a missing driver/ joystick configuration issue?
Also is the joystick new? If its second hand, it might have some internal issues

Ignore the name, I use to have set-ups for different aircraft, but got fed up with switching, so this is an all-in-one set up that will handle wing sweep or vectored thrust with the dual throttle
That is my most up-to-date config for the X-56.
Quick and dirty rundown
Trigger is the primary fire
main pickle button is set to both fire secondary and drop series (drop series is disabled when weapon selector is on)
button on the right of the stick locks target
Going clockwise around each starting at the top
left hand DPAD handles radar (Radar mode, scale, ACM, mode)
Bottom right handles weapon controls (ripple mode, CM mode, weapon selection, sight mode)
Top right is more miscellaneious (tpod, drop tanks, IRST, CCRP target
Pinky trigger is for lock radar
Pinky button is drop CMs (note its set to drop flares and chaff so selected CM has no impact)
thumb stick for lock, click for zoom. Will also move the tpod
on the Throttle, going front to back
Engine toggle
SAS Mode
periodic CM drop
fire exstinguisher
activate target point
deactivate target point
MAWS slaving
radar toggle
the two hat switches handle manual radar controls. top handles elevation, bottom X and Y radar movement
my thumb stick and the button above are broken, so I dont use. use to use them X and Y radar movement and for laser
rocker on the back of the throttle, up for toggle weapon selector, down for drag chute
left button chaff, right button flares
top button for laser, the one below handles airbrakes
going left to right for the front switches
thrust reverse
cannon CCIP + manual wing sweep
Flaps up
Flaps down
nothing (use to be airbrakes, but havent had the need to remap yet)
gears
and I think that is every thing on the HOTAS.
I still use the keyboard for a few controls, like
1 for cockpit close
2 for cockpit light
3 for cockpit HUD toggle
4, 5 and 6 handle MFDs
7 MFD zoom
8 TVD/NVDs
For TPOD aiming, I still use the mouse.
So ctrl+left click stablises the sight, ctrl+right click disables it
clicking middle mouse button enables the laser
mouse wheel handles zoom (right click instantly toggles still)
left click will fire A2G weapon
