It makes the rudder only react to stick inputs but not to external effects. Before the first flight, you have to set the correct amount of gyro gain in order to adapt the reaction of the gyro system to your specific helicopter model. Additionally, you have to choose between two different operation modes:<br />
	<br />		<br />
	* '''Normal-Rate mode''' - here the tail gyro of ~~MICROBEAST PLUS~~ only acts as dampening that decelerates sudden rotations caused by external influences. Slow, constant rotational movements will not be compensated. Thus the tail does not drift in hover due to the main rotor torque, a perfect mechanical adjustment of the tail rotor is essential (see the section to [[Manuals:~~MBPlusFblV5~~:Setupmenu_E/en\|Setup menu point '''E & F''']]). But even with perfect mechanical adjustment you will always encounter some drift on the rudder axis due to crosswinds and the pilot has to constantly perform corrections when doing hovering flight. In high-speed flight on the other hand the tail will be aligned in flight direction by the wind, so curves can be flown very dynamically and the pilot doesn‘t have to constantly concentrate on controlling the rudder.<br />		* '''Normal-Rate mode''' - here the tail gyro of the AR7210BX only acts as dampening that decelerates sudden rotations caused by external influences.

	<br />		<br />
	* '''HeadingLock mode''' - in this mode the tail is actively controlled by the gyro system. You will barely feel any external influences. By giving rudder stick input, the pilot only commands the gyro how fast it has to turn the tail. When the stick is in center position the tail gyro will ensure that the tail keeps locked into position by any means. This simplifies the control significantly. In hovering flight the beginner can fully concentrate on the control of cyclic and collective pitch and the advanced pilot can perform 3D - flight maneuvers such as backwards flying quite easily. The only disadvantage of HeadingLock-Mode is that the rudder must be steered by the pilot when flying curves. Otherwise the gyro will try to keep the tail aligned with the initial direction.<br />		* '''HeadingLock mode''' - in this mode the tail is actively controlled by the gyro system.

	{{QUOTE\|The cyclic feed forward does not affect the maximum rate of rotation! If the helicopter turns too slow, you should check the settings of the swashplate limiter in [[Manuals:~~MBPlusFblV5~~:Setupmenu_L/en\|Setup menu point '''L''']], change the control behavior at [[Manuals:~~MBPlusFblV5~~:ControlStyle/en\|Parameter menu point '''B''']] or increase the servo travels or “Dual Rate“ setup of your transmitter.<br />		{{QUOTE\|The cyclic feed forward does not affect the maximum rate of rotation!

	Also to get a quicker and more aggressive response, change the control style at [[Manuals:~~MBPlusFblV5~~:ControlStyle/en\|Parameter menu point '''B''']] (reducing expo and increasing the maximum rotation rate) and increase the cyclic response at [[Manuals:~~MBPlusFblV5~~:Parametermenu/en\|Parameter menu point '''G''']]. It is not recommended to increase the feed forward in this case! Although it may produce a quicker servo movement and more direct stick feel at first glance, you will get negative effects on overall performance as described above.}}<br />		Also to get a quicker and more aggressive response, change the control style at [[Manuals:AR7210FblV5:ControlStyle/en\|Parameter menu point '''B''']] (reducing expo and increasing the maximum rotation rate) and increase the cyclic response at [[Manuals:AR7210FblV5:Parametermenu/en\|Parameter menu point '''G''']].

	When you're using the optional available ~~PROEDITION~~ firmware in combination with the Bank Switch feature you can set the parameters for the tail gyro and cyclic control loop in the StudioX app ~~independant~~ for all three flight modes. The dials on the device have no effect in this case. The auxiliary channel for adjusting the gyro gain is used to switch between banks (flight modes) instead of adjusting the gyro gain (see the page [[Manuals:~~MBPlusFblV52~~:BankSwitch/en\|Bank Switching]] for more detailed information).
