Similar to swashplate servos frame rate at Menu Point B you can select the update frequency/update rate for the rudder servo here. For best tail gyro performance the rule is: the higher the better! A good rudder servo should be capable of running at least 270Hz. With high update rate, the system will recalculate movements more often and in consequence will send commands to the servo with a higher frequency. This results in better positioning and more locked in feeling. Of course, this will cause the rudder servo to make more movements at a given timeframe. So in case the servo is not built for this kind of application, this can cause a high power consumption of the servo and cause the servo getting very hot. When this happens, reduce update rate immediately to prevent your servo from getting damaged. Only go as high as recommended by the servo manufacturer, or reduce frequency to an acceptable level, in case the servo is not capable of handling such high frequency in field use.

  • When using a servo that allows a higher frequency as MICROBEAST ULTRA can offer, please select the next lower frequency that is closest to the given frequency or set a custom frequency with the StudioX app.
  • Using a lower frequency is always possible. Only high frequencies can damage the servo and/or will cause the servo to not work properly. Here you can find a list of parameters for the most common servos. Please understand that we can not list all servo types. Also we can't guarantee the accuracy of this data. Ask the manufacturer of the servos or your servo dealer for detailed information.
  • With high frequencies, some servos run in a jerky manner, especially the fast ones with coreless or brushless servos. This is due to the high update rate that the servo receives. This is not critical and will not impact flight performance.


If you do not know the maximum pulse rate tolerated by your servos do not select more than 50Hz driving frequency. A higher driving frequency can lead to failure of the servo!
