This is the BeastX Microbeast Plus Flybarless Unit. MICROBEAST PLUS is based on the popular MICROBEAST and is leading the next generation of the BEASTX flybarless revolution. MEMS sensors of the latest generation measure the aircraft‘s rotational movement with unprecedented precision, and transmit the data digitally in real time to the control system. These sensors are insensitive to typical vibrations of a model helicopter. The housing made of plastic composite material keeps the weight of MICROBEAST PLUS sensationally low.

MICROBEASTPLUS works with the world's proven EasySetup of BEASTX. The sophisticated setup can be done quickly everywhere and no expensive programming box or computer is needed, allowing simple and easy setting changes at the flying field.

Further options are available with the optional USB2SYS in­ter­face and the StudioX software package. MICROBEAST PLUS can be kept up to date by using the update functionality, allowing advanced pilots to customize the unit specifically to their needs. StudioX for Windows & Mac is available for download at www.beastx.com.

Align Microbeast BeastX Plus Flybarless Unit
Unit faulty out of the box. Could not enter any menu. Very little to no support offered from BeastX.
This is my 3rd Microbeast so very disappointing the support from BeastX is poor.
Store credit offered from Amain Hobbies so its good to see the store supporting people in the hobby.

Align Microbeast BeastX Plus Flybarless Unit
I decided to return to the hobby after an eight-year hiatus starting with a new Align 550X. I have a 700E DFC for which, I bought a heli command 3GX for $500 for it's rescue functionality. I thought for sure I would have bought a new gyro to replace this one that is included in the kit by now, but I actually really love it. (I did pay to upgrade the firmware). It is stable as can be and the rescue is MUCH MUCH more reliable than my helicommand is. It's not something I use all the time but being confident that it will work in an emergency is extremely valuable to me. Speaking of which I am not sure why Helicommand rebranded themselves to Bavarian Demon... I'm not into demonic things.

Anyway I'm definitely keeping the stock fbl unit (to my surprise) on my 550x.

I have no opinion yet of the device itself being that I have not figured out how to program it! Align sends you to a site for the manual and instructions. What I found out was the manual does not follow the quick guide and its difficult to figure out which step I'm in being that the heli doesn't respond the way it should in a particular step. The box states that I have a 5.4 version. Yet, I have not found any directions for this particular version. They ( Align ) say that the 5.0 version will work but, I have found it not to be so.

It is a real pleasure to buy from Amain Hobbies ! I find the entire process very convenient with a very well layed out website !

I especially appreciate the support from the customer service team, spoke to them for some technical queries I had, and Joe was very patient and spent a good amount of time to help clarify, I really appreciate all the support and will definitely continue to buy more fro Amain Hobbies!

Align Microbeast BeastX Plus Flybarless Unit
This has taken some time to get to. I ordered two with the intention of having a backup. Used the first to great success. Went to use the second unit in another Heli, only to find out, it was not what was ordered. Instead of being a BeastX Plus, it was a BeastX Ultra. It was a returned item that had items missing and did not work, as well the instructions were for the "Plus" model. Not pleased. I have programmed numerous controllers without issue. As I did not get to this in a timely manner, I did not attempt to have this resolved. So, beware and check your times when you get them.
