Description
Reason
Solution
The MICROBEAST does
not initialize.
The MICROBEAST
signals a sensor
failure
- helicopter must stand absolutely still
during initialization process.​
The helicopter slowly drifts
by itself on aileron, elevator
and/or tail.
This indicates to a
vibration problem
which interferes with
the sensors of the
MICROBEAST.
- check the whole helicopter for
imbalances
The Status-LED is flashing red.
- strong wind can shake the helicopter and
therefore the sensors. Lay it on the side
during the initialization.
- don’t initialize on a vibrating support, like
a car hood or trunk with a running motor.
Turn off the motor!
- Sensors are damaged.
Return MICROBEAST for repair
The swashplate is perfectly
leveled and no sub trimming is
present in the radio nor is any
mixing function active.
- in electric helicopters the motor can
cause high frequent micro-vibrations
- balance the tail rotor blades very
accurately
This behavior seems to be
influenced by the rotor head
speed.
- check the tension of the tail belt
- choose another mounting position
for the MICROBEAST
- try other types of gyro pads
The Menu LEDs H to N are
running up and down,
MICROBEAST does not
initialize.
The MICROBEAST
has no valid
signal from the
receiver.
- Check the wiring. Mainly check receiver
wires for polarity on both sides and correct
plugging (no vertical offset by one pin)
- In case of 2.4GHz, check the transmitterreceiver binding.
- Check the correct receiver type. Chapter 4.

The sensors do not seem to
work correctly.
The tail servo does not react or
reacts very slowly to rotation of
the helicopter. The same
happens to the elevator axis.
wrong mounting
orientation has been
selected.
The gain of tail gyro is
too low in the
transmitter or even not
on the right channel
- in setup menu point A select the
correct mounting orientation.
- Adjust the Gain in the transmitter
- Correct wiring or setup of tail gain
cable/channel.
