Hey bobarotski, this is expected behavior; Epic made a procedural mistake a long, long, long time ago and made the fortnite character skeleton orientation right-forward. Despite the recent changes to standardize orientation to Left Up Forward axes I’m not sure if it’s in their power to fix this in their existing content.

There definitely needs to be a big warning in the documentation that you need to import your own skel meshes right-forward to comply.
