9.6  Factory Reset

Performing a factory reset restores Solo and the controller to their state prior to the first flight update. Use a factory 

reset if you forget your Solo Wi-Fi password or need to restore Solo’s factory settings.

Contact customer support before performing a Factory Reset. It is 

possible this procedure may result in software incompatibility if not 

performed under the right circumstances. 

9.6.1 

Solo

As part of the reset procedure, Solo will be un-paired from the Controller. Start by powering off Solo. Use a paper 

clip or similar tool to press and hold Solo’s Pair button while powering on Solo. (Make sure you feel the Pair button 

click down underneath the paper clip to verify you have properly activated the Pair button.) Continue holding the 

Pair button for at least 15 seconds.

Bellow the Accessory Port and adjacent to the Pair button is small orange LED Pair indicator light, once this light 

starts flashing rapidly (strobing about 5 times per second), you can release the Pair button.
