How to Factory Reset Your V3 ControllerUpdated 3 hours ago

A factory reset can be done to resolve V3 Controller issues by restoring the controller settings back to their default state.

There are two methods to perform a factory reset:

  1. Factory reset through the controller menu
  2. Button override factory reset (if the screen is frozen or menus cannot be accessed)

Method 1 – Factory Reset Through the Settings Menu

Use this method if your controller screen and buttons are responding normally.

Steps:

  1. Turn on your V3 Controller.
  2. Press and hold the + and - buttons at the same time to enter the settings menu.
  3. Navigate to:

Menu 15 – Factory Reset

  1. Press the B button to select.
  2. The controller will prompt you to confirm the reset.
  3. Press the B button again to confirm.
  4. The controller will restart automatically.

Once restarted, the controller will be restored to factory settings.

Method 2 – Button Override Factory Reset

Use this method if:

  • The controller screen is frozen
  • The controller is not responding
  • You cannot navigate through the menus

Steps:

  1. Press and hold all three buttons at the same time:
  • + button
  • - button
  • B button
  1. Continue holding all three buttons until the controller restarts.
  2. The controller will return to the home screen.

The factory reset is now complete.

After Performing a Factory Reset

After the reset:

  • Check that the controller is responding normally.
  • Test menu navigation.
  • Confirm throttle operation.
  • Download latest firmware on the App and re-calibrate the throttle. 
  • Re-pair the controller to your Foil Drive system, if required.

Still Having Issues?

If a factory reset does not resolve the issue with your controller, the next step is to submit a warranty claim for assessment.

Please complete the warranty form for your region and ensure you include:

  • Your Foil Drive serial number
  • A detailed description of the issue
  • Clear photos and/or videos demonstrating the fault
  • Proof of purchase receipt 

Providing complete information when submitting your claim helps our Support team diagnose the issue faster and reduces delays in processing your warranty.
