4. RECEIvER CONNECTION
In relation to the control of MICROBEAST you have the opportunity to use dierent types of receivers.
It is distinguished between conventional standard receivers and socalled single-line receivers:
A standard receiver is a receiver that is connected to the MICROBEAST by using any single servo output of
the receiver to connect the ve control channels between MICROBEAST and receiver. The channel which
determines the controlled function simply is selected by inserting each plug to the correct output at the
receiver. In section 4.1.1 it is shown how to exactly connect the receiver to the MICROBEAST when using the
MICROBEAST as ybarless system. In addition the use of MICROBEAST is possible as a stand-alone tail gyro.
See section 4.1.2 to learn how to connect receiver and MICROBEAST in this case.
When using a single-line receiver all channels are transmitted by one single connection line to the
MICROBEAST. Because of this, it is not possible here by inserting the appropriate plugs in the receiver to
assign functions to the MICROBEAST. This must be done by a specic setting in the MICROBEAST (described
in chapter 5).
Also single-line receivers similar to standard receivers with additional single channel connectors are
available. Therefore you only have to treat such receivers as single-line receivers in combination with
MICROBEAST if you really use this function.
How dierent types of single-line receivers are connected to the MICROBEAST is described in section 4.2.
Use as a stand-alone tail rotor gyro in single-line mode is possible under certain circumstances,
but not intended and therefore is not described further in the following.
