In the Languages tab of the configuration you have an option to have translations published by default when you translate the product information directly from the HikaShop product edition page (which you can do alternatively to Falang's interface). In that case, you don't need to enter the translation for the flag of your main language as you will enter it directly in the main fields of the product.
