===Why do the swashplate servos run very slowly when testing on the bench?===
===Why do the swashplate servos run very slowly when testing on the bench?===
This is absolutely normal. The movement of the stick gives the MICROBEAST only a command to control the helicopter. The sticks do no longer control the servos directly. So you cannot say exactly what the MICROBEAST will do with the servos when you push one of the sticks.<br />

===I use DualRate in my radio to decrease rotation rates but MICROBEAST / MICROBEAST PLUS still drives my servos to full deflection when testing on the workbench.===
This is absolutely normal and doesn't say anything about the rotation rates you will see in flight. Similar to the tail gyro in HeadingLock mode the system measures rotation rates and tries to maintain the rotation rate that is commanded by stick input. Now if you move the stick while the heli is standing on the ground you tell the system to rotate the heli with a certain speed. The system measures the speed and sees that nothing is happening. So it will apply more and more servo input in order to move the heli but as the heli can't move the servos will be driven to the maximum allowed deflection.<br />
