What does the Governor?

MICROBEAST ULTRA comes with an internal headspeed governor function. This can control the throttle automatically, so that the rotor headspeed of the helicopter stays consistent in flight. I.e. when you add pitch and load the rotor disk, the system will add more throttle in order to prevent from sagging headspeed. When you descend quickly on the other hand, the system will lower the throttle to prevent from overspeeding. Usually this is what you try to do when using the throttle curves of your transmitter, but this is very inprecise and will not give reproducible results. It's much more convenient to just tell the system what rotor headspeed you want and this will maintain the given head speed for the whole flight, even when batteries go empty or the motor starts to run lean. The governor function can be used with electric heli which doesn't have a governor built in the speed controller or when the governor function of the speed controller doesn't maintain the headspeed very well. For helis with combustion engine you don't need to buy a separate governor device anymore, with MICROBEAST ULTRA you already have it on your heli.

Please note that the Governor function is not applicable when a Standard receiver is used!
