the translation is 100% complete.
At SETUP MENU point L you set the maximum negative and positive collective pitch
for your helicopter. Additionaly you have to make sure that MICROBEAST PLUS is
detecting the direction of movement correctly. This especially is important when using the
rescue bailout function but has also effect on the normal flying!
Don't modify the pitch curves in your transmitter when doing the collective
adjustments! Let everything at default (i.e. -100 0 +100), so the stick is
moving the pitch channel over the full range.
When finished, adjust your pitch curves as you like and as you are used to. But for now,
we need to set the working range which is necessary to gain optimum performance. Here
it is important to define the mechanical possible range of your helicopter, not to define
your flying style. For example when using a 3D trainer helicopter frame this usually will
have a symmetric pitch range, i.e. reaching from +12 to -12 degrees. Now when you
are a beginner or scale pilot you would not need that high amount of pitch (especially
not in the negative section). Anyhow, it is not recommended to set the pitch range of
MICROBEAST PLUS asymmetrical to -4 to +12 degrees for example, as this would
not represent the helicopters capability. Better is to set the endpoints to -12 and +12
degrees and later use the pitch curves in your transmitter to adjust the lower end to
your preferred flying style. Have a look in your helicopter's manual to find out what is
the optimum pitch range.
