Ströhl 1897 gives the greater standard, white with the full arms. Note that the escutcheon is not the same as in the lesser standard.

Flag adopted c.1880, abolished 1911
A horizontal tricolor white-red-blue. At the center a white disk with the [lesser] arms of Schaumburg-Lippe.
Norman Martin, April 1998
The lesser princely standard was the striped flag with the lesser arms of Schaumburg on a white disc in the center.
Mario Fabretto, 27 August 1998
I guess this standard dates from c.1880 since it is then that the white-red-blue colours and their order were fixed.

Ströhl 1897 gives this flag as lesser standard. In the centre is the Lippian rose.

Flag adopted 1911, abolished 15th November 1918
A square white flag, with a red zig-zag bordure (six red points showing on each side) and a heraldic rose in the centre. It is illustrated in Neubecker 1933 and Neubecker 1977, p.134 (the square flag at bottom left).
I said the Bavarian royal standard 1914-1918 was the only standard of a German sovereign which followed the Austrian model after the turn of the century. Actually the 1911-1918 standard of Schaumburg-Lippe also had a similar border, but only because it was a banner-of-arms of the (lesser) arms of Schaumburg-Lippe. The arms of the County of Schaumburg have a red zig-zag bordure — a Nesselblatt like Holstein for example, see the current Schleswig-Holstein arms.
