Lost RSA Key – How to Reset Flight Controller Without ST-Link?

Hey folks,
I’m stuck with my flight controller and could use some advice.

  • My FC requires an RSA key signature to enable.
  • Unfortunately, I lost the key and now I can’t access it.
  • I don’t have an ST-Link programmer handy.

I’m wondering if there’s a way to reset or flash the FC without using ST-Link. I’ve heard about using the BOOT button + USB with Betaflight Configurator and doing a full chip erase, but I’m not sure if that bypasses the RSA requirement or if there’s another workaround.

Has anyone here dealt with this before? Any step-by-step guidance or alternative methods would be super helpful.

Thanks in advance!
