Genuine Unitree G1 remote controller — the two-handed joystick remote included with the G1 and G1 EDU, sold standalone as a replacement or spare.

The Unitree G1 remote controller is the two-handed handheld remote for the G1 humanoid — the same controller that ships in the box with every G1 and G1 EDU. Sold standalone, it is the replacement for a lost or damaged remote, and the spare that gives a lab or demo team a second operator station.
One handset runs the whole session: walking, turning and speed changes from the twin joysticks, mode and posture control from the button layout, and an emergency-stop combination within thumb reach. Because the Unitree G1 remote controller is the robot's factory control link, pairing follows the same routine as the remote the robot arrived with.
The Unitree G1 remote controller is built around two analog joysticks under the thumbs, so one hand drives direction while the other trims speed and turning — both adjustments at once, which is what smooth walking control on a humanoid actually needs.
Around the sticks sits a familiar gamepad-style layout: shoulder buttons L1/L2 and R1/R2, A/B/X/Y action buttons, a D-pad, F1 and F3 function keys, and SELECT/START for standing and walking states. The soft emergency stop — damping mode — is the L2+A combination: deliberate enough to avoid accidental hits, close enough to reach without looking. And the mode-switch reference table is printed right on the center panel, so walking, running, stair-climbing and customised-movement commands never need a manual mid-session.
The link to the robot runs on a 2.4GHz digital transmission module, with a Bluetooth module alongside it. The data-link indicator on the handset confirms the connection before you walk the robot off the bench.
Unitree ships this remote controller with both G1 versions — the official G1 configuration lists the manual controller as included with the standard G1 and the G1 EDU alike. There is only one version of the G1 remote, so there is no edition split to cross-check when ordering a replacement.
Buying standalone covers two situations: replacing a lost or damaged remote, and adding a second handset so two operators can share a robot across shifts, classes or demo sessions.
