If you plan use Saitek Software profiles, you can't delete in game controls, because what the software do is:
Joystick button press generate a keyboard press that execute a game function
e.g. Joystick button 1 = press Space = that Fire guns.
So if you dont have keys assigned for games functions, joystick buttons is not able do do nothing.
Unless you map the in "direct mode", assign buttons for games functions,
e.g. Joystick button 1 = Fire guns

3. If I delete all the Control Inputs ingame can I easily reset them if I need to?

You need backup the file ConfUser.ini, the game dont have function "Reset controls to default" (like il-2:'46).

4. Which is the preferred method of Control, Profile Editor or using the ingame Controls?
|
I prefer Joystick buttons direct assign to game functions, this allow me change settings during flights, no need edit and load profiles. And avoid accidental actions by hit some keyboard key, that make function for some Joystick button.
FYI - You can create different in game settings and save with name of specific plane (as example) and load then even during flight (hit Esc, go to Controls and load).
