Has anyone set up a BeastX on the new 500 Pro? Just wondering if using the inner hole on the metal servo horns that are supplied with the kit gives good set up in terms of getting the right colour light at the appropriate stages of the Beastx set up?
Thanks
Steve

Yes inner hole is good (blue light) on new efl 500 pro with uBeast. Also I went in one hole from recommended on tail rotor servo horn to gain resolution.

Hi Shawn. Are you running a single satellite on your 500 Pro Beastx or are you running a standard receiver?
Thanks

1 satellite
I try to keep the small machines in a fairly small space:). Furthest I usually go is for an auto.

I am also running a single sat with the beastX, no problems. and I have went WAAAAAAAAY up there a couple times, could barely see it... I am using the carbon sat with the longer heavier antenna though.

So if i use the 3GX do i need to use 2x satelitte ro will i be ok with 1. Also when you talk about better resolution are you referring to more instant response and power by using the inner hole. Just want to know if i should use the inner hole for the 3gx too?
Sorry for the question but this is my first 500.

I think if I were flying the 3GX I would certainly use 2 remote receivers simply because I can and 2 is better than one. But having said that I believe one is certainly enough. It'll have to be as I am using my beloved Beastx ;)

Ok thanks smaze...and what about the inner hole on the horns....would that apply to the 3gx too?

So you guys aren't having any problems with one satellite on the Beast X on the 500?
Are you running a BEC on the Beast X?

I am running stock everything on the 500 efl pro except microbeast, KBDD orange dampers, EDGE tail blades, 3026-1600kv scorpion, and a 9188 tail servo. no BEC. just the stock esc.
