At this moment, we still can easily set up the Microbeast with the button/LED procedure and fly without problems. If we want, we can also make these two settings with the PC (not mandatory). I'm happy that people hevinga multiblade helis can electronically phase their rotors with the Microbeast, as I am using the revomix (best tails I've ever had). Ciao, Egidio

I know that for traditional hh gyros, it is typically advised to not use revo mix.
Does the BeastX handle this function differently then? Im wondering, does it sense the torque and apply appropriate pitch on the tail blades like traditional revo mix, or is it adding tail pitch based on some amount of main blade pitch, than after that allowing the tail gyro to do its comp? it seems that it may be the latter.

It's a different kind of revo mix, like you said.
450 flew perfect with the 30%(or whatever value it is), tail sat perfectly still in pitch pumps. The 600 needs more than 30 as it still wiggles a little on pitch pumps. I'd say the beastx tail is nearly identical to the vbar in performance now (vbar still has optimizers which do make a small difference) |

If you can, try it!!! It's incredible, starting from take off. Ciao, Egidio

I was just saying that the vbar still has a little bit more than the beastx in terms of tail performance. I ran the vbar for a few months before the beastx, and their performance is getting really close now.

Phasing: a Leave Setup H well alone. It teaches the MB the servo attachment points, ie how to implement a desired slant. Not at all clear to me what this has got to do with phasing. b Pick a well-defined reference point (to be given by the manual). My favourite would be due backwards - the tail boom. It's in the same place whatever the heli. Grab a blade and align it with that reference. c Given that we seem to be out of LEDs, let's assign the phasing setup to Param H - who cares. d When I enter Param H, let the MB slant the swash such that there is ONE POINT somewhere on the swash that now pitches up 6*. e Let me use the rudder stick - as per usual - to rotate this slant around the compass to the left or right. f I will push the button at exactly that point where the slant (somewhere around the compass) will pitch the reference blade to 6*. The MB knows where the reference blade is pointed. It knows where the slant is. Put the two together and your phasing is sorted. Easy. No PC required. Revo Mix: I have not looked at the s/w but will hazard to guess that the PC interface will offer an accuracy for tuning this setting that is totally spurious (ie not a good reflection of the innate approximation of the algorithm). On Param F, there are still plenty of colours unassigned. So simply give me three standard settings to choose from: moderate, medium and strong. These should be understood as ratios, along the lines of moderate=+1.5* tail for every +/-1* pitch, etc. If you really care, let black allow the user to define like so: I will set my left stick to a certain pitch position and tail position. When I press the button, this means I want that much tail deflection for a change in pitch as given. If you wonna go nuts, give us Param G so that we can tell the MB the ratio between cyclic and pitch. Anyone see any flaws in this? If not, I might PM labmaster. Why |

why not? surely this software will grow to accommodate more, and future enhancements, a sticky like this is a great place to house this type of dialog.

I trust it's great. I have been back and forth to the laptop with the 3G no end. Hated it. Also one reason I did not replace the 3G with a vbar. Greatest thing about the MB was that I did not need to do all this. Oh well, if, as you are all clamoring, the MB's LED interface is at an end and the PC's the way forward, then the CGY750 will be my next port of call, I suppose.
PS: I accept, judging by the vitriol on the BeastX forum over the past year about the lack of a PC link, that I am probably in the minority of one with my opinion. |

You can still program the beastx like always, they're not going to disable the stick programming

Asymmetry is a compensation function if the rudder moves unequally in both directions (there are no negative values since the value depends also on the setting for the main rotor torque). Under normal circumstances it should not be necessary to use this - default is 0.

Helico-pteron : I saw that on the beastx forum. I've experimented with putting in a high value... and what this does is make the slider move dramatically in one direction vs the other. Either I will need to adjust the asymmetry until left and right piro stops are equal or I'll adjust the asymmetry until it feels solid and even by hand(no main blades on). If anyone has ideas I'd love to hear!

bummer they didnt include high and low pitch swash levelling.

maybe they will add that in the future, that would be a nice feature to have.

Can I ask a question. Why would swash levelling for high and low be required for an FBL system? If you move only the collective, up and down, to make climb outs straight, surely an FBL system, such as the MB, knows that you are meant to be climbing in a straight line, and if there is any tendency to roll off, won't it sense that and correct accordingly. In other words, isn't the swash position, in flight, totally dynamic, and controlled entirely by the MB, in this regard?
I thought the only important thing here was for it to be perfectly level, at zero, which is MB's reference point? Mine never was perfect under FB, and I would pull out in loops etc, but I never could entirely work out if it was me or not. I have the same servos now, and cannot set high and low levelling with the MB, so any errors I had should still be there, worse in fact, due to the lack of any form of correction at high or low, yet my climb outs now are straight, and my loops track perfectly. This was a bit of a revelation actually, because no matter how hard I tried to adjust my FB set up before I could never get it perfect, reasonably good but not great, so I assumed it was me putting in unwanted aileron, but it can't have been, or else they wouldn't be straight now, unless I just got better, which is not impossible I guess, as I am improving. Just wondering. Cheers Sutty

good question. The control loop is capable of filtering out mechanical imperfections to a certain extent. A slow figure as a loop shouldnt be a problem. But for example a tictoc would need constant correction and this can be to demanding for the control loop. So when minimizing this during setup the control loop has to do less corrections.

Thanks for the explanation, but I am still confused.
Would not high and low levelling, in software, not mechanically, just be another sub-routine to be added to the control loop, making the corrections even more onerous, and perhaps slower? Thanks again. Sutty
