I found that the best way to use Thrustmaster in Dawn of Aces was to use the Input Sprockets as little as possible and use a TM Stroke set just like in WB. I've set my ISP buttons to do nothing (all except for the basic rudder/throttle and stick input options. Then I use a TM strokeset (see below).
