This is another example of an Uno using the CH340 chip for USB communication. There's no way to tell it apart from a Mega based on VID/PID.

@Little-Plum yeah, this is a known issue with clone Uno boards using the CH340 chip. There is just no way to tell them apart from a Mega board using the same chip, but you successfully did the workaround. The good news is your Uno board will be recognized correctly on all subsequent firmware updates, as long as the Mobiflight firmware is loaded.

I will close this then, and I will add a special dialog in the future to select the type for these kind of boards.
