For anyone suffering the problems described in my original post it seems the fault has been rectified following the instructions in this post.

> Hi @Boko, we contacted the support and they suggested us the following setting that seems to work: “changing the parameter FS\_PILOT\_TIMEOUT to 5 in QGC” (see attached screenshot)

Changing the setting to 5 appears to have cleared our disconnection issues and the game pad not being seen. Around 3 hours of operation so far without a problem.
