To initiate bind procedure on a single Spektrum® remote satellite connect the Spektrum bind plug to SYS port. When using
a DSMX remote satellite push and hold the button and turn on power while still holding the button down. The LED on the sa-
tellite will flash together with Menu LED H on the MICROBEAST PLUS. When binding a DSM2 remote satellite do not touch the
button but only power on the device. The LED on the satellite will flash together with Menu LED N. Initiate the bind procedure
on the transmitter. Power off and remove the bind plug when finished successfully.
To bind the JR® RJ01 remote satellite initiate the bind procedure on the transmitter and power on the MICROBEAST PLUS.
The remote satellite will bind instantly. Connecting a bind plug or similar is not necessary.
3. MICROBEAST PLUS HD
Input voltage range: 3,5 – 8,4 Volts.
MICROBEAST PLUS HD in first line was designed for 550 size helis and larger which
use standard size servos with high current consumption. Here you can connect the
power supply directly to the additonal high-power input which reduces voltage loss
due to contact and wiring resistance significantly when high currents are flowing.
Always use the supplied power cable as connector between battery and MICROBEAST
PLUS HD. It is not recommended to directly plug in the battery at the device.
Continuous plugging and unplugging can cause the overlying servo plugs getting
unplugged accidentally or cause the adhesive gyro pad to get loose!
Receiver and servo plugs are connected to the ports on top of the unit, similar as
described for the standard (non-HD) MICROBEAST PLUS.
Receiver battery or BEC
Using the switch is optional. The device can also be operated without switch. Then it will be ON all the time. Anyhow, never connect
anything else than the switch to the switch port. Otherwise the device will get damaged!
When switched off MICROBEAST PLUS HD consumes a very low amount of standby current. Therefore always
completely disconnect the battery from the system if you do not use the model for a extended period of time to prevent
the supply battery from getting discharged and damaged in consequence.
MICROBEAST PLUS HD does not supply an internal voltage regulation! The voltage that is applied to the high
power connection port will directly be passed to the servo and receiver connections. Only use electronic components
(servos and receiver) that are designed for your power source.
Using the high power connection port is not a must. You can also use MICROBEAST PLUS HD in a conventional
manner by powering the unit from the receiver ports in the top row. However, using the electronic power switch system
is not possible then.
