Ok I got it working... I found out it was too far in...

this is where it was:

.../simobjects/airplanes/F136/F136 it seems it was under another file inside itself and that stopped it from working.
I'm not the best designer. . . meh I think I'm pretty good for 14 years old. . .

That's a common problem. You will need to be familiar with all that before you start creating your own aircraft.

This isnt the first thing I've added but I just didn't realise it buried itself...

I'm not sure how that happened as it comes with an auto-installer. That should extract the files to their correct locations. As it's an FS9 aircraft it would extract the F136 folder to the FS9\Aircraft directory. FSX has no Aircraft directory which is why you have to move it. The best method would be to direct the install to a Temp folder & install the files manually.

Do I install the SDK from Acell, Deluxe, or both?

I believe the SDK is on FSX DeLuxe DVD1. See Alex's earlier reply.

K thanks...
One last question...
Is there anyway to get that plane to not pull up by itself?
This might be b/c of my joystick, but it was never this bad!
The plane pull up vertical by itself.
With every other plane I have, when the joystick is centered, the plane pulls up to about 10 degrees upwards... not comp;etely vertical...
Also... It seems I renamed that aircraft folder instead of moving its contence (whoops...)

I notice an alternative Aircraft.cfg is included. I suggest you try that.

That might explain your problems. There should be no need to rename or create folders when installing aircraft. You really must have a good understanding of the basic principles before attempting to create your own aircraft.
