Update firmware with Flydigi Space Station on PC (or Flydigi Game Center on mobile). Connect by USB-C or the 2.4G dongle so the app can see the controller — Bluetooth does not expose update/settings. The tool prompts when controller or dongle firmware is available; keep the cable attached until it finishes, then optionally run the guided stick calibration.

FAQ

Why can't the app find my controller?
Use USB-C or the 2.4G dongle; app access (settings, firmware, calibration) is unavailable over Bluetooth.
Does it update the dongle too?
Yes — Flydigi Space Station can update both the controller and the 2.4G dongle.
