=Attaching your Microbeast PLUS to the helicopter=
Attach the Microbeast PLUS 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.

There are eight possible mounting orientations: The MICROBEAST PLUS unit either can be attached '''flat or upright''' on the helicopter and the '''servo connector pins must always point towards the front or rear''' of the helicopter. The small white sensor pinboard on the side must always be inline with flight direction:</p>

{{QUOTE|[[File:Warning.png|18px|sub]] '''Pay attention that the edges of the Microbeast PLUS unit are all parallel with the corresponding rotational axes of the helicopter!''' Especially make sure that the mounting platform is perpendicular to the main shaft! On the other hand it is not important that the unit is directly placed on the rotation axis (which is nearly impossible) and also it is not important whether the system is placed in parallel to the ground or not.}}<br />

=MICROBEAST PLUS HD=
 
MICROBEAST PLUS HD is the most powerful flybarless system from the MICROBEAST series. While function and operation are identical to MICROBEAST PLUS, the HD version is characterized by the possibility of a high power supply. This meets the requirements of speed flyers and extreme 3D pilots and is primarily used in helicopters larger than 500 size that have very power consuming servos installed. By using a low-resistance high-current connector system MICROBEAST PLUS HD makes it possible to use thick power cables for connecting receiver battery or BEC which preserves a virtually loss-free transfer of electric current. In addition the power connection is switchable using a particularly fail-safe switch system, so there is no need for a separate and costly power switch. '''Apart from the high power supply and the switch system the operation of MICROBEAST PLUS HD is identical to MICROBEAST PLUS.''' So it is not explicitly dealt with the HD version later on in this manual. All subsequent executions are also based on MICROBEAST PLUS HD!<br />
