I just received my V11, this is my first EUC.

I am having trouble staying on the wheel.

When I try to accelerate, I cannot get enough 

speed to stay balanced.

I have not changed any setting on the wheel.

They are as they came in from the factory.

Any help will be appreciated.

Is the tire pumped up to the appropriate pressure (as indicated on the tire)? Wheels can behave quite badly with too low tire pressure, and they often come with an empty tire. Maybe it's just that?

Or maybe you just need to learn to trust the lean. EUCs work by following your center of gravity. Here's a simple test you can do: do the same stance you use to accelerate, just do it on the ground (no electric unicycle involved). Are you falling over forwards and need to take a step to catch you and not fall down? If not, this stance wouldn't actually accelerate you on the wheel. You would still be in "neutral".

I find it unlikely tht some wheel setting is stopping you from riding. But who knows, it's maybe possible. Feel free to describe your problem in more detail if it persists. And welcome to the forum and the glorious world of EUCs:efef62fc70:

First EUC as in just started learning day 1? You can't just stand on it and ride if that's what you mean, you have to learn how to get on it and how to ride it, build your balance and muscles.
