StudioX/StudioXm allows to directly flash firmware files to your BEASTX device using the USB (StudioX for PC/Mac) or bluetooth (StudioXm for smartphones) connection. The update process is similar to all our devices so it will be shown here for MICROBEAST PLUS exemplarily. Using a computer in combination with the USB2SYS interface also allows to update the firmware of your BLE2SYS bluetooth interface. Updating the BLE2SYS from a smartphone and via bluetooth is not provided.<br />

The firmware files must be downloaded from your freakware network Webserver. So for the update process it is necessary that your computer or mobile device serves an internet connection. Please note that especially when using mobile data this may produce costs. We recommend to not use the mobile network and just do the update process at home where you have (free) wifi. Especially when using a mobile device check that your network settings and privileges for using the internet are set correctly for the StudioXm app in you Android or iOS settings. Typically, when your internet is not configured correctly you will not be able to login to the freakware network and will get an error message instead when clicking the Firmware Update button in the app.<br />

For the update procedure it is highly recommended to unplug all servos as the servo can go to full deflection during the setup. This is because the outputs of your device will not send out any signals during the update process. In such situation some servos can behave very strange or unforeseen, especially cheap servos with bad servo software. Using an electric heli it is also recommended to unplug the motor from the ESC or unplug the ESC or main battery in case this is not used for powering the radio system (no BEC), so the motor will not start by accident during or after the firmware update.<br />

When the update does finish completely usually the device will be stuck in recovery mode as the main application is erased now. This is no problem at all! Just try again. If the update fails again and again at some point, completely close the app and power off your device. Power on again, start the app and try again. If that all does not work you please try another computer or smartphone.<br />
