At the moment we offer two additional features for MICROBEAST PLUS: the '''RPM Governor''' and the '''AttitudeControl''' function. All MICROBEAST PLUS units can be upgraded with these functions by (paid) software update. Additionaly these functions are already included in ProEdition devices.</p>

With MICROBEAST PLUS you have purchased an electronic control system that continuously detects and controls the commands from the pilot. As a result the system is constantly aware of how the drive system will be burdened. The '''RPM Governor''' system uses this advantage to control the motor rpm. Contrary to conventional motor control systems that only monitor the engine speed, MICROBEAST PLUS can thus react sooner to speed changes. A separate engine governor system is no longer required for nitro helicopters and electric models can be used with a simple (cheap) speed controller without additional features such as soft start or governor mode. The desired rotor speed is specified via the remote control transmitter and MICROBEAST PLUS controls the throttle servo or speed controller accordingly, so that the predetermined head speed is maintained from takeoff to landing. MICROBEAST PLUS offers an integrated soft start for spooling up the rotor before takeoff and a quick start to regain head speed in a controlled manner when practicing autorotation maneuvers. The system is suitable both for electric and nitro/gas helicopters. Using the proven „Easy Setup“ concept no additional equipment is required for programming (apart from your remote control system) and the initial setup is done within minutes.</p>
<p>
'''Note:''' The RPM Governor function can only be used in combination with a [[Manuals:MB_Plus:Receiver_Installation/en#Single-Line_receivers|single-line receiver]] or [[Manuals:MB_Plus:Receiver_Installation/en#Single-Line_receivers|Spektrum remote satellite]]. When using a receiver with [[Manuals:MB_Plus:Receiver_Installation/en#Standard_receivers|standard connection layout]] there is no option for connecting the rpm sensor and throttle servo/ESC and no connector for throttle control.</p>

With '''AttitudeControl''' MICROBEAST PLUS can determine the absolute position in space of the helicopter on the roll and pitch axis, regardless of the position in which the helicopter is currently located. At the moment this can be used as flying aid with five different operation modes:
* Bail out rescue mode (with/without collective pitch)
* 3D – Mode (with/without collective pitch)
* Flight trainer mode
</p>
<p>
AttitudeControl helps you to learn new maneuvers and reduces the probability of crashing significantly. If AttitudeControl is switched on in flight the helicopter will be oriented in a nearly horizontal position, depending on the selected mode always in normal or also in inverted flight. So the helicopter can be brought in a save position by the press of a button, i. e. if the pilot becomes disoriented. Beginners can use AttitudeControl permanently (preferably in the „Flight trainer mode“), whereby the helicopter loses the peculiarity of having to be constantly controlled by the pilot. While AttitudeControl is switched on the pilot can simply release the sticks for aileron and elevator and the helicopter will be held almost horizontally without external control commands.</p>
