Finally a satisfying rookie experience
Check out OpenKneeboard. You can install (VR and non-VR) and have an image for each aircraft with key performance and engine management data. I like to grab a screenshot from this YT channel.

PDF controller
OpenKneeboard might be able to solve this problem. You can bind commands to a joystick or other device, and if that doesn't work, it also has some utility executables that you could have your button box call to control it.

Started creating portrait aspect ratio of Chuck's Guide Start-up for the F-18 to be able to use in VR for kneeboard. It's not perfect but works. Thoughts?

VPForce FFB joystick base not recognized + MP issue
Basically, looks like IL-2 will only detect first 8 usb devices. I have about twice as that number in the simpit. One solution is to unplug stuff. That ain't happening over here - if I have to unplug stuff I might just as well hire a minimum wage worker for that. Another option is to use devreorder u/charon-prime suggested or temporarily hide the unneeded devices with HidHide.

Disabling the TM T16000 when not using it
HidHide https://github.com/ViGEm/HidHide/releases can hide devices in software. Just run the configuration client to either select the device and hide it on demand or always hide it from anything but the games in which you want to use it

Input Lag With the ALP?
I've been playing with using XOutput + HidHide to cause Windows to see the the ALP controls as an Xbox controller instead of the generic device it normally appears as, and it seemed to significantly improve the input latency in FX. But there are other downsides and quirks that it causes, including problems actually launching the ball in some of the FX tables, so it might also end up being a non-starter.
