When StudioX is started and your MICROBEAST PLUS was detected by StudioX click the Control Setup tab to show the adjustment options of RECEIVER MENU. The options you see here are basically similar to the Menu Points you can change directly at the device. In the first row (Menu Point A) you can see which type of receiver/input signal is selected at the moment. The rows below show what channels are assigned to which control functions. Finally in the last row (Menu Point N) you can what value for throttle failsafe position is set in the device.<br />

==Receiver type== <!--T:22-->
In order to detect the connected receiver type make sure the receiver is bound to the transmitter and sending out signals. Also make sure the transmitter is setup correctly as shown in the chapter [[Manuals:MBPlusFblV5:Radio_System/en|Radio System]]. Press the "Scan" button to start automatic receiver detection routine. The Status-LED on the device and the display will indicate which type the system is scanning for at the moment. When a valid input signal was detected the receiver type will be set automatically and a small dialog will appear and ask you how to proceed with function assignments in case a single-line receiver is used or the system will restart when a Standard receiver is used. When detection fails the system will stay at menu point A. In this case once again make sure your receiver is connected properly to MICROBEAST PLUS, bound to the transmitter and sending out control signals and try again.<br />

==Points B to I (PROEDITION: J)== <!--T:23-->

==Function assignment== <!--T:23-->
 
When using a single-line receiver it is mandatory to define the function assignment for the receiver output channels as the single-line receiver packs the control information together and it is not clear, which channel controls which (stick) function. For each specific type of receiver/radio brand there is an appropriate channel allocation preset in MICROBEAST PLUS. If this does not fit your radio system or if you like to use a different assignment or different options you can manually assign each function step by step at the Menu Points B to I (J). Here each point represents one function to assign.<br />

===Manual function assignment=== <!--T:25-->
<p>In case the channel to function ordering differs from the given tables above on your radio system, you have to manually assign the channel order step by step. This is done by simply actuating the appropriate channel function on your transmitter at each of the menu points B to I (PROEDITION: J). Each menu point represents one control function to assign. When you're ready click '''Teach''' in the "New receiver detected!" dialog and start with function allocation at Menu Point B. When you move the control stick/adjust the channel on the transmitter, a blue flash of the Status-LED indicates that the channel has been detected. The setup will jump to the next menu point automatically. It does not matter how far or in what direction you move the stick or in what position the stick/switch was. The channel's value itself is not important, but the change of this value is. It is therefore important that only the requested function is activated and not by accident several simultaneously. Otherwise MICROBEAST PLUS may not recognize the allocated channel correctly. Once a channel was assigned, it is no longer available and is ignored by MICROBEAST PLUS for the remaining process. Thus, after learning of the collective pitch function (at Menu Point B) you can enable the throttle function (remove throttle hold or switch to a linear or V shape curve) and teach the throttle channel by re-operating the thrust stick at Menu Point G. Now the collective pitch channel is no longer considered as this channel has already been assigned previously and MICROBEAST PLUS will detect and use the throttle channel as actuator for throttle function!</p>

<p>The first 6 functions must be assigned as they are necessary for the basic flight control and the button remains locked until you operate a new control function. The other functions are optional to assign and can be skipped. If special features like AttitudeControl or RPM Governor are not installed on your device, the specific menu points for assignment will not be accessible at all.

* The assignment for Aux [CH6] Output at Menu Point H can be skipped by pressing the "Skip" button without teaching a channel for this function in case it is not used.

* The assignment for Aux [CH6] Output can be skipped by pressing the "Skip" button without teaching a channel for this function in case it is not used.
* Likewise, the assignment of the channel for internal nitro Governor can be skipped in case it is not needed or if you don‘t want to control the Governor with a separate channel, e. g. if your transmitter does not provide enough free channels. By skipping the assignment the internal Governor function will use a different operating mode that allows to control it via the throttle channel (set at Menu Point G) if you like. When used in an electric model the internal Governor generally is controlled with the throttle channel (set at Menu Point G). In this case the assignment at Menu Point I can be skipped anyway, as an assignment will have no effect.

* Finally at Menu Point J you have to assign the channel that is used to activate/deactivate the AttitudeControl (only when you've installed the PROEDITION Upgrade on your device). Again this can be skipped if not needed or if you don‘t want to use a separate channel. AttitudeControl can still be used then. In this case the channel for the tail gyro sensitivity (set at Menu Point F) is used to switch AttitudeControl or you can enable it separately using the Bank Switch feature, see the section about using AttitudeControl for further details.</p>

* Finally, you can assign the channel that is used to engage the AttitudeControl/rescue stabilization (only available you've installed the PROEDITION Upgrade on your device). Again this can be skipped if not needed or if you don‘t want to use a separate channel or in case you have no more free channels left). AttitudeControl can still be used then. In this case the channel for the tail gyro gain is used to engage AttitudeControl or can be enabled separately using the Bank Switch feature. Please see the section about using AttitudeControl for further details.</p>

After you've set the control functions you will reach Menu Point N to program the failsafe position for the throttle channel. In case the single-line signal is interrupted during operation the throttle servo/speed controller connected to the [CH5] Output is automatically moved to this position. This particularly is the case:

After you've set the control functions you will be asked to program the failsafe position for the throttle channel. In case the single-line signal is interrupted during operation, the throttle servo/speed controller connected to the [CH5] Output is automatically moved to this position. This particularly is the case:
 
* if using a single-line receiver that turns of the single-line signal in case of signal loss between receiver and transmitter (e.g. Spektrum® satellite receiver or Graupner® receiver in „SUMDOF“ mode)
 
* if using a single-line receiver that turns of the single-line signal in case of signal loss between receiver and transmitter (e.g. Spektrum® satellite receiver or Graupner® receiver in „SUMDOF“ mode)

{{WARNING_QUOTE|'''During failsafe setting the CH5 Output is enabled and can be controlled by the transmitter channel that is assigned to throttle function.''' This allows to check your throttle position in reality. When using electric models make sure the motor is disconnected from the ESC or the pinion is removed from the motor, so that it will not drive the model by accident.
