Vive Index Thumbsticks Axis Bindings need to be specified for BOTH axis (per thumbstick, if using more than one) in Project Settings - Input

Axis names MUST end with _X and _Y respectively for the Vive Index plugin to find them.

Even if only one Axis is being used.

No need to specify anything for the unused Axis in C++ (Aside for Sanity/Clarity/Order/Style/Etiquette)

void AVRPawn::SetupPlayerInputComponent(UInputComponent * PlayerInputComponent)
{
	Super::SetupPlayerInputComponent(PlayerInputComponent);

	PlayerInputComponent->BindAction(TEXT("RightTrigger"), EInputEvent::IE_Pressed, this, &AVRPawn::RightTriggerPressed);
	PlayerInputComponent->BindAction(TEXT("RightTrigger"), EInputEvent::IE_Released, this, &AVRPawn::RightTriggerReleased);
	PlayerInputComponent->BindAxis(TEXT("PaginateRight_X"), this, &AVRPawn::PaginateRightAxisInput);
}
