	* Make sure that all trims and sub trims are disabled and that all servo travels are set to 100% in any flight mode. There mustn't be any active mixing functions (for example rudder revo-mixing). Have a look at the radio’s servo monitor: each stick has to control one channel / servo output (except for thrust stick which typically controls collective and motor at once when using a heli specific model memory). Please note when using a BEASTX flybarless device you won't directly control the servos of the helicopter. By moving a stick you pass a control command to the system which then performs the necessary servo movements. Each control command is bound to one servo output channel of the transmitter.		* Make sure that all trims and sub trims are disabled and that all servo travels are set to 100% in any flight mode.

There can be more optional channels to control function like AttitudeControl / Rescue or Governor, but this is not a must have.<br />
			<br />
			The controls can be transmitted from the radio receiver to the BEASTX unit by using a data signal. The systems support a variety of different protocols and manufacturers, and new systems will be added regularly. With MICROBEAST PLUS and ULTRA it's also possible to connect the control inputs to the servo output channel from the receiver in the conventional way.<br />
			<br />

			In the next section we will show the specific connection schemes for each radio system / data protocol. Before, we will show a general guideline on how to setup your radio system for usage with your BEASTX system.<br />
			<br />
