I have a MS Sidewinder Precision Pro 2.

 

Make sure the joystick works in Windows. Start> type game controller. Choose the setup usb game controllers and check its working.

 

Load up MSFS2020 and go to the Controls panel. It should show the name of your controller above and to the right of the keyboard and mouse headings and say it has a default profile. There should be a blank middle panel and a picture of a joystick with an exclamation mark on the right panel.

 

Manually configure the bindings.

Play with the filter until you find the control you wish to assing a keystroke/joy button etc.

I suggest setting filter to "Essentials". Choose the control I'm using Ailerons as the example.

There should be two columns on the right. Use the first one. Click and choose the input. Do not use Aileron Left Axis or Aileron Right Axis. Use Aileron Axis. Repeat for the other axises and control bindings.

Apply and save.

Awesome news that you've got your Precision working, mind sharing your settings?
