GDriver is built first and foremost for FarDriver controllers, bringing controller setup, parameter editing, Auto Learn, reusable tuning profiles, live telemetry, diagnostics, and ride tracking together in one modern app. FARDRIVER CONTROLLER TUNING Connect directly to a compatible FarDriver controller over Bluetooth. Read supported parameters, make changes, and write confirmed updates back to your controller. Configure power and current limits, speed and gear behavior, throttle response, regenerative braking, field weakening, motor and battery setup, protection limits, control inputs, display behavior, and other supported settings. AUTO LEARN AND PROFILES Run supported Auto Learn tools during controller setup. Create reusable profiles from the FarDriver parameters you choose, save different tunes for commuting, range, performance, or validation, and apply a profile when you are ready to ride. LIVE TELEMETRY AND CUSTOM DASHBOARDS Follow available speed, voltage, current, power, energy, temperature, battery, GPS, and controller data in real time. Customize dashboard layouts and choose the metrics that matter most to your ride. TRIP TRACKING AND RIDE INSIGHTS Automatically capture distance, duration, route, speed, and energy data. Review ride history, analyze efficiency and performance trends, explore saved routes in Ride Atlas, and use battery-health insights to better understand your setup over time. DIAGNOSTICS AND CONTROLLER SETUP Inspect live diagnostics, telemetry graphs, controller status, and supported BMS data. Review controller identity, configure tire dimensions and gearing, calibrate controller speed against GPS, and manage compatible telemetry settings. CONTROLLER AND BIKE INTEGRATIONS Connect FarDriver, KO Moto, EBMX, TORP, TruMoto, Axon, and DUNEN hardware in one app. Depending on the controller, bike, model, firmware, and protocol, supported features can include parameter tuning, live telemetry, diagnostics, custom dashboards, ride recording, and trip insights. FarDriver offers GDriver's deepest tuning experience; other integrations range from supported tuning to read-only telemetry and ride tracking. Features and data availability vary by vehicle, controller model, firmware, and protocol. Changing controller parameters can affect vehicle behavior.
