Setup menu point B is for selecting the servo update frequency (pulse rate) for the
swashplate servos. To optimize the performance of MICROBEAST PLUS the rule is: the
higher the better! With high update frequency the system will recalculate correctional
movements more often and in consequence will send new commands to the servos with a
higher frequency. Nevertheless, this will cause the servos to make more position changes
at a given timeframe. In case your servo is not built for this kind of application this can
cause an unusual high power consumption of the receiver power supply and cause the
servos getting very hot. When this happens, reduce frequency immediately to prevent your
servos from getting damaged. Only go as high as recommended by the servo manufacturer,
or even lower when the servo is not capable of handling such high frequency in field use.
When using a servo that allows a higher frequency as MICROBEAST PLUS offers or
that allows a maximum frequency which is not choosable, please select the next lower
frequency that is closest to the given frequency or set the frequency with StudioXm
PC Software or mobile App. Note: Using a lower frequency is always possible. Only
too high frequencies can damage the servo and/or will cause the servo to not work
properly. Here

you can find a list of parameters for the most common servos. Please
understand that we can not list all servo types. We also can not guarantee the accuracy of
this data. Ask the manufacturer of the servos or your servo dealer for detailed information.
If you do not know the maximum pulse rate tolerated by your servos
do not select more than 50Hz driving frequency. A higher driving frequency can
lead to failure of the servos!
With high frequencies, some servos run in a jerky manner, especially the fast ones with
coreless or brushless servos. This is due to the high update rate that the servo receives.
This is not critical and will not impact flight performance.
