4.0.0 This version is an upgrade version that brings new features to your MICROBEAST PLUS device. At the moment there are offered two versions: one with RPM Governor only and the full featured Pro-Edition with RPM-Governor and AttitudeControl. As these versions enhance the functionality of MICROBEAST PLUS, we will charge some fee for these. Despite of the additional features there is no functional difference to firmware version 3.2.0.

The control it quite similar to electric speed controllers with governor function, so you simply set your throttle curves as switches for "motor off", "headspeed 1", "headspeed 2", "autorotation bailout". Optional the nitro governor can be also used in classic style with a separate switch for govenor/rpm control.
* AttitudeControl overs different modes of self leveling. These are Bailout rescue mode, 3D-Mode and Flighttrainer mode with angular limitation. Basically when you activate the AttitudeControl it will turn your helicopter back to level position if you release the sticks. Some modes additionaly apply collective pitch input and lock your thrust stick in the ground direction. So the unit will turn your helicopter and keep it leveled in hovering flight regardless of how the pilot moves the stick.
