Alternatively you may use the "Multi-Rotor" vehicle type. This will provide a very fast and immediate throttle control and thus provide maximum performance of the MICROBEAST's RPM Governor. Adjusting throttle response and brake function is not necessary here and not provided. Please note that this mode doesn't feature any dynamic limitation. Depending on the motor this can cause very high current spikes and overheating of the motor. Only use at your own risk:<br />

When using a Castle EDGE controllers with the provided rpm signal cable, make sure the "Auxiliary wire mode" is set to "RPM out". Otherwise there will not be any rpm signal on this wire:

Before you can use your Castle Creations ESC you must adjust your transmitters throttle range so that it'll fit to the ESC's throttle range. Later onwards we will also set this throttle range at the MICROBEAST PLUS unit.

(1) First of all make sure you have a standard linear throttle curve from 0 - 100% in your transmitter and that your servo endpoints are reaching from -100% to +100%. In this example we're using a Spektrum DX9, for your transmitter these values maybe somehow different. Basically what you need is a standard throttle control as you get when using a new model memory in the transmitter. Make sure you can control the throttle by watching the throttle channel movement on the transmitter's servo monitor.

(2) Now reduce the throttle channel output by setting the endpoints to 0% (or close to zero) so you barely get any movement on the throttle channel when moving the thrust stick. If this is done move the thrust stick all the way up and only now connect your ESC to the flight battery. You will hear a "bleep" tone from the ESC (motor), followed by a row of short tones indicating the number of cell count. Then there will be no more additional tone.
