use 2 joystick axes to pan view?

[zovirl]

I have a 5-axis joystick. After setting up pitch/yaw/roll, I still have a 2-axis thumbstick left over. I'd like to use it to control the view in IL-2 1946. However, I can't figure out how to get this set up. The game options don't seem to support this...I can map an axis to view zoom, or I can map a hat switch to control the view, but I can't map an axis to the view.

I tried looking at newview but it didn't seem like it supported this either (though maybe I missed it...it has a lot of options, and the manual is in russian). A few google searches didn't turn up any promising leads.

So is this possible? Anyone else have it set up?

(If it matters, I have IL-2 1946, 4.10m patch, window 7 64-bit, and the joystick is an xbox 360 controller)
