The easiest path is the web Setup Tool: put the controller in PC mode, connect by USB-C (or Bluetooth in Chrome / a 2.4G adapter), open setup.gulikit.com, and follow the prompt. The tool needs firmware V5.7 or newer to load. As a manual fallback, hold the APG (double-square) button + A on power-on to mount a "GuliKit" USB drive and drop the .bin firmware file onto it; the drive ejects when done. The latest Elves 2 Pro firmware is V5.8.

FAQ

setup.gulikit.com won't detect my controller.
Use Chrome, set the controller to PC mode, and connect by USB-C cable; Bluetooth detection in the tool needs firmware V5.7+.
Can I customize the LED color?
Yes — the Setup Tool lets the Elves 2 Pro customize its light color once you're on a supported firmware.
