Choose a preset frequency by clicking one of the provided buttons for menu point B (Swashplate frequency) or set a custom frequency by directly changing the value with the dial or buttons. Using a custom frequency you can go up to 300Hz frame rate for the swash plate servos. This is plenty enough even for the fastest servos on the market.<br />

When you route the wire leads in your model make sure that there is no tension passed to the flybarless system. Make sure that the housing is able to move freely, so no vibrations get passed onto the unit by the wire leads. It is not recommended to bundle or tie down the leads close to the system. On the other hand the wires must be attached in a way that the wires won't move the flybarless system during the flight caused by g-force. In particular, do not use any shrink tubing or fabric hose to bundle or encase the wiring in close proximity to the point at which the cables are plugged into the BEASTX system. This makes the cables stiff and inflexible and can cause vibrations!<br />
When routing the wires in your model, ensure that there is no tension on the flybarless system. Allow the housing to move freely to prevent vibrations from being transmitted through the wires. It is not recommended to bundle or tie down the wires close to the system. Lay out the wires loosely for a few inches, then attach them to the helicopter so they cannot move due to G-force. Additionally, avoid using shrink tubing to bundle or encase the wiring near the point where the cables are plugged into the BEASTX system. This can make the cables stiff and inflexible, leading to vibrations.<br />

'''Additional swashplate servo for scale helicopters'''<br />
When using a scale helicopter with 90 degrees eCCPM, you can connect a second elevator servo to [CH7] output on the MICROBEAST PLUS. On MICROBEAST ULTRA the second elevator servo connects to [CH6]. Note that these ports are only signal outputs, so you must power the servo from elsewhere, i.e. by getting power from the [SYS]-port using a Y-adapter (for + and - only!). Anyhow, with large scale helicopters we recommend to use a separate power distribution unit to which you connect the servos. This will be the better option in regards to robust and fail safe power distribution. Please note that the second elevator servo port will require a power cycle to enable after you've set up 90 degrees eCCPM mode. Also you can change the ratio for the servo at [CH6] / [CH7] in StudioX to activate the servo mixing. When the ratio for [CH6] / [CH7] is 0 on the other hand, the servo outputs will be controlled from the AUX channel that can be set in RECEIVER MENU.<br />
