When trying to install StudioX I get an error message that "vc_redistx86.exe" is missing. What's that?

On Windows systems StudioX is using the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime environment. When your system is not up to date, it can happen that you've not the latest version on your computer. Please download the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime environment from Microsoft and install manually:

When trying to install StudioX I get an error message that "MSVCRUNTIME140.DLL" is missing. What's that?

On Windows systems StudioX needs the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime environment (Version 2015) in order to be executed. When your system is not up to date, it may happen that this environment is not installed on your computer, or only a different version is installed. Please download the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime environment from Microsoft (vc_redist.x86.exe) and install manually:

Connection issues

StudioX (Version 2.x.x) does not recognize my device

I start the StudioX software and connect my BEASTX device to the computer but nothing happens.

  • Make sure the wiring is connected correctly. The servo wire coming from the USB interface goes into SYS port on your MICROBEAST / AR7xxxBX device. Watch out for correct polarity and make sure that the device is powered from a receiver battery or BEC (only when using the RX2SIM interface the BEASTX device can be powered from the USB port!).
  • On computers with Microsoft Windows operating system make sure the driver files for the USB2SYS / SPMA3030 / RX2SIM interface has been installed as described here.
  • Check the PlugIn configuration for your device within StudioX (in the menu bar click "Edit" and choose the "Plugins.." entry) as described here.


When the blue LED lights up solid on the USB2SYS/SPMA3030 the connection wire is plugged in with wrong polarity! Usually the light on the interface flashes periodically when data is transferred between computer and BEASTX device, but it mustn't light up continuously.

StudioXm (StudioX 3) does not recognize my device

I'm sure I have selected the correct interface port but StudioX scans for some time and than says no device found.

  • Make sure the wiring is connected correctly. The servo wire coming from the USB interface goes into SYS port on your MICROBEAST PLUS / AR7210BX. Watch out for correct polarity and make sure that the device is powered from a receiver battery or BEC (only when using the RX2SIM interface the BEASTX device can be powered from the USB port!).
  • When using a smartphone the BLE2SYS interface must be connected to the SYS port, watch out for correct polarity. Make sure the LED on the BLE2SYS flashes in intervals of 2 seconds. By default the interface deactivates after 30 seconds whe there is no connection. In this case the LED is off. You have to cylce power in order to reactivate the device.



StudioXm does not find the BLE2SYS bluetooth interface when refreshing the interface list

  • Make sure bluetooth is switched on at your smartphone/tablet.
  • Do NOT connect to the BLE2SYS device over the smartphone/tablet bluetooth menu, StudioXm establish connection by itself!
  • BLE2SYS uses bluetooth smart (bluetooth LE), make sure your mobile device supports this special bluetooth protocol.
  • Make sure the LED on the BLE2SYS flashes in intervals of 2 seconds. By default the interface deactivates after 30 seconds whe there is no connection. In this case the LED is off. You have to cylce power in order to reactivate the device.



I get the message that my device is not supported by StudioX. What can I do?

Please update your device to the latest firmware version then you can use StudioX in full functionality. Firmware update function is always available only the other functions like setup and backup/restore may not be available when you use an older firmware version!




freakware Network login and device registration

I can't log in with my freakware Network account

I get the error message "Wrong login or password". When trying to renew the password I get some mail with a link, but this does not seem to work out.

Please make sure to use the correct username that was initially used to register to the freakware network and make sure to use latest Version of StudioX/StudioXm App (Version 3.x.x)!!

  • Neither use your freakware.de shop login nor use a different email address that was never ever registered. You can enter a wrong email address and request a password for it, but this will lead to nothing but a missleading email notification!
  • Also make sure that your email was confirmed when doing the registration process. Usually you should get a confirmation email to your account within minutes when registering from StudioX. If you did not get such email check your Spam and Trash folders of your email account. Sometimes this email will be sorted out by your mail provider or spam filter as it is an automatic mail. If you can't find that mail anyways contact the BEASTX service to get your account activated manually!



I can't log in with my freakware Network account and I'm sure I have used the correct credentials

Make sure to use latest Version of the StudioX/StudioXm App (Version 3.x.x). Please note that possibly older version can't connect to our webserver anymore!


I'm not able to log in to the fw Network after creating a new account. Is my password wrong?

Even I tried to reset the password. But also with the new password I can't log in.
It is very likely you have not activated your account by clicking the link in the automatic response mail for your new account. Changing the password will not help here as this will not activate the account. You must click the confirmation link! If you did not get such email please check you Spam/Junk mail folder. Probably your email provider or mail program has filtered it out. Also make sure that you've entered a valid email address!



I've forgotten my password. How to reset?

In StudioX on the initial Firmware Update login form click the "Password forgotten" button to request an email with a password reset link. You should get this email within a few minutes. If you don't get such email check your spam folder. Also make sure you've entered the correct email address and especially make sure this email is a valid freakware Network account! If this mail address is not linked to an account of course we can't send you a password.



How can I deregister a MICROBEAST PLUS / SPEKTRUM AR7210BX from my fw network account?

Deregistration of a device is not possible. We can only move the device to a different account, i. e. in case you've sold your device. Please send us an email and tell us the new account name and serial number, then we will change the registration as soon as possible.


StudioX says that my device is registered to another account and doesn't allow to download update files. What to do?

To prevent from software piracy each device must be linked to exactly one user. This requires you to create an account in our network and register your device to this account (please note that creating an account is safe and easy, we just ask for a valid email address from you and we will not collect any personal data). Now if you buy a device from another person that was already registered just drop us an email and provide the serial number of that device (and of course also your account name in case this is not your email address) then we will move that device to your account. For your convenience you can click the link in the StudioX Software or StudioXm App then an email with your serial number will be created automatically. After the device was registered to your account you can use the device just as if it was always yours.
