Please note the RPM Governor function can only be used in combination with a single line (single-wire) receiver. Using a standard receiver is not possible.

The RPM Governor function of MICROBEAST PLUS firmware version 4.0.0 does work very well with Castle Creations ESCs. The Castle Creations Phoenix EDGE series provide a separate rpm signal output, so despite the firmware with governor function there is nothing else needed to connect your ESC to MICROBEAST PLUS. When using a Castle Talon, ICE, ICE2 or similar ESC you additionally need to buy a rpm phase sensor like the BEASTX phase sensor BXA76013 so that MICROBEAST PLUS can detect the motor speed/rotor head speed of your helicopter. To connect and supply the rpm sensor with power you will also need the sensor adapter BX76401.
