To enter one of the menus you have to wait until the device did perform the self test and did initialize completely: The Status LED must get blue or purple and the cycling LEDs A to G and H to N must have stopped.<br />

==My servos are not on the website's servo list. Can I use them anyway?== <!--T:5-->

The servo list on the website only is a collection of some servos' data. It does not say that if a servo is not on the list that you must not use it. If a servo is not on the list we simply did not test it ourselves or we could not find any data about it. Also we can't know any servo on the market. In fact the BEASTX flybarless devices are compatible to nearly any servo on the market. As a rule of thumb servo torque in kg/cm should be at least 2-3 times the heli weight (in kilogram). Speed should be at least 0.1s/45° or even faster. In addition the servo should be very precise, have little backlash and a low deadband. And of course best would be if it is a digital servo and supports 200 Hz driving frequency. Also using special heli servos which are designed for maximum vibration resistance is a good choice.<br />

=Setup menu point J - Adjust left or right or both directions?= <!--T:8-->

You only have to adjust one direction, whether it's left or right, it doesn't matter. Important is to exactly adjust 6° when the blades are aligned on the aileron axis as this teaches the unit the servo throw. Push the aileron stick to adjust the pitch and when the blade pitch is 6° simply push the button briefly and that's it.<br />

=Setup menu point J - I don't get blue color at 6 degrees= <!--T:9-->

When getting the 6° too early this shows that you may not use full servo resolution (not using the full throw). This can be solved by using longer blade grip linkage arms, reducing the swashplate inner diameter (shorter linkage balls) or larger swashplate outer diameter (longer linkage balls). Or simply by screwing the linkage balls on the servo horns further in (but this will reduce both cyclic and collective - the cyclic/collective ratio will not change).<br />
