Hardware installation
Attach your BEASTX unit by using one of the provided 3M® gyropads at a preferably low vibrating position on your helicopter such as the gyro platform or receiver platform. You may need to choose another type of mounting pad depending on the vibration pattern of your helicopter.
The BEASTX system can be attached flat or upright on the helicopter:
|
|
Pay attention that the edges of the housing of your BEASTX unit are all parallel with the corresponding rotational axes of the helicopter!
|
Make sure that the mounting platform is perpendicular to the main shaft! On the other hand it's not important that the unit is directly placed on all the rotation axis (which is nearly impossible). Also it's not important that the system is placed in parallel to the ground or not.
