I have been using FDC forever and I am very familiar with creating and editing aircraft profiles t suit my needs but this one has me baffled. I can't find a working solution so I hope someone here can help. The original panel of the Coolsky DC9 has no defined flap detente positions so I tried to cheat and create a profile with no detentes, but FDC does not allow that. Then I tried one with one detente, but I still get the same mismatch message. The weirdest thing is that FDC seems to be reading the flap positions from somewhere in the panel and not the aircraft.cfg file. This aircraft has the correct flap positions in that file, but I could not find anywhere in the panel.cfg where flap info would be stored. Please help!!!!!!!! Attached is a screencap of the message I get when trying to connect.

There was an error in the Coolsky's original aircraft.cfg file. I fixed the flaps.position sequencing and numbering and now it works like a charm!!!!!!!!
