The X2 Pro's two rear paddles are mapped right on the controller. Hold View + Menu + M1 (or M2) for three seconds until both indicator LEDs flash, then press the button you want the paddle to mimic; a double flash confirms it. Face, shoulder and trigger buttons can be assigned without software, while L3/R3 and D-pad assignments use the GameSir app over USB-C.
