=Attaching your Microbeast PLUS to the helicopter=
Attach the MICROBEAST PLUS gyro by using one of the provided 3M® gyropads at a preferably low vibrating position on your helicopter such as the gyro platform or receiver platform. You may need to choose another type of mounting pad depending on the vibration pattern of your helicopter.
<p>
There are eight possible mounting orientations: The MICROBEAST PLUS unit either can be attached '''flat or upright''' on the helicopter. The '''servo connector pins must always point towards the front or rear''' of the helicopter. The small white sensor pinboard on the side must always be inline with flight direction:</p>

{{QUOTE|[[File:Warning.png|18px|sub]] '''Pay attention that the edges of the Microbeast PLUS unit are all parallel with the corresponding rotational axes of the helicopter!''' Especially make sure that the mounting platform is perpendicular to the main shaft!<br />
<br />
It is '''not important''' that the unit is directly placed above the rotation axis (which is nearly impossible). Also it doesn't matter whether the system is placed in parallel to the ground or not.}}<br />

Achte unbedingt darauf, dass die Gehäusekanten vom MICROBEAST PLUS absolut parallel zu den Drehachsen des Helikopters ausgerichtet sind, insbesondere dass die Montageplattform winkelrichtig zur Roll- und Nickachse ist! Es ist aber nicht notwendig, dass das Gerät genau auf den Drehachsen montiert wird (was praktisch nahezu unmöglich ist) und auch nicht, wie das Gerät zum Erdboden ausgerichtet ist.
