Hey Matt,
Chances are that this is a result of outdated software. A quick fix would be to confirm you have the latest version of the FreeFlight Mini application on your smartphone. If you do and there is still a failed connection then there is probably an outdated version of the firmware for the minidrone itself. You can find the instructions for updating your firmware in our [[Parrot Hydrofoil Orak troubleshooting|troubleshooting page]]. Hope this helps out
