Firmware is updated through Flydigi's own software, not a button combo. On PC, install Flydigi Space, connect over USB-C with the rear switch in the wired position, and run any offered update without unplugging. On phones, the Flydigi game center / FlyMapping app handles updates over USB-C or its app flow. Never disconnect or power off mid-update.

FAQ

Do I need a cable to update?
USB-C is strongly recommended on PC via Flydigi Space; the mobile app can also drive updates.
The app doesn't detect the controller?
Set the rear switch to the wired/USB position, try another USB-C cable/port, and reopen Flydigi Space.
