4.1.2 Usage as stand-alone tail gyro
The MICROBEAST can also be used as high-end stand-alone tail gyro. This requires the use of a special patch
cable which can be purchased separately. This ensures that the MICROBEAST is provided with power and
that the signals for rudder and tail gain are available from the receiver.
The signal lead with the orange and yellow wires must be connected to the slot [ Aux | Pit | Rud ]. The orange wire
must be closest to the topside of the MICROBEAST.
The power lead must be plugged into the slot [ ELE | DI1 ]. The brown wire (negative or ground) is on the
bottom, the red wire (positive or power) should be in the middle position. Connect the tail servo to [ CH4 ].
If using the MICROBEAST as stand-alone tail gyro only the menu points A, C, D, E and F need be
adjusted in setup menu. All other menu points can be skipped.
To avoid damage to the tail servo, rst setup menu points C and D which are tail servo pulse and frequency,
prior to connecting the servo.
