# Powering the Controller

Understanding how to power Go1's remote controller is important because it is the same sequence you'll use to power your Go1 robot. This can be achieved with a short press followed by a long, 3 second press. When powering the remote controller on you'll hear a single beep. Following the same sequence, you can power the remote down and hear 3 consecutive beeps.

This video also covers how to install the joysticks in your remote controller. Since the controller is spring loaded, you will pull it apart and access the joysticks on the right side of the remote.
