The number of times the eyes of the MiniDrone flash green during start-up only (2
or 5) indicate which Wi-Fi bandwidth is being used (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz).

If  the  MiniDrone  does  not  appear  in  the  Wi-Fi  menu  on  your  smartphone,  it
probably means that your MiniDrone is in 5 GHz.
If this is the case, press the On/Off button for 5 seconds to manually switch to the
2.4 GHz Wi-Fi bandwidth.
