Good eye Will! We are making some adjustments to the Flexible material settings in order to properly accommodate the resin. These updates should be going very very soon.

I’ll make a point to post here again to let you know when the update is available.

In the meantime, I would not recommend using any of the other material settings as you run the risk of under or over curing your parts.

Thanks Jory,  
I am having the same issue and I am interested as well in being notified as soon as the upgrade is available. Really looking forward to that!

Please let us know,
