Help - problem playing Elite

I am having a strange problem with Elite. My CH products joystick is not being recognised, so I cannot use it to play the game. The joystick wioks fine with other games (Skyfox, Choplifter, Sabotage, etc) and is showing up as connected and working using two different Control Panel programs.
Configuration:
Apple iigs ROM 03
CFFA3000 in slot 2 (boot slot)
Slot 6 set to "Your Card"
4 MB RAM card
I assign Elite to Slot 6, drive 1 and then boot slot 6. Elite loads fine but the joystick is not recognised at all.
Any/all suggestions welcomed!

Mikkail,

I couldn't find anything to indicate what the control are for the game Elite, and since I have never played it I can't help much.
I did download the game image and run it and I tried my CH joystick but it doesn't seem to do anything for me either.

In my searches on the net I found this interest site:

Do you know for sure it supports the joystick/paddles?

Thanks,
-Rich
