How to reset my drone?

I have a parrot rolling spider minidrone and after a crash the drone would not stop spinning one of its blades and it will not charge, furthermore I cannot connect it to the application.

"i've had a problem installing the update and haven't even had the opportunity to fly mine around before it has problems.

but in the process of researching for ways to reset the drone so i can try the update again, i found in one of the user manuals that you can reset the drone via the app. swipe left to bring up the menu, then scroll down to settings and tap it. in there is all your drones setting, and if any of them can be reset there is an circular arrow in the top right hand corner that should do exactly that.

unfortunately this doesn't work for me as even though i attempted to install the update it hasn't registered as it being updated, resulting in it thinking its already at its original setting, but i also cant re-install the update as obviously parts of the installation have worked and its picking up on the computer that there is a problem.

back to trying to find answers. if anyone knows a way around this you will be a legend in my eyes and your story of your heroicness will be passed down for generations to come ;p"

"Hey everybody,

I had the same problem with my Rollin Spider and here's what worked.

- First do a factory reset on the App. You will see a reset icon on the top right corner in the app

-Second remove all the propellers and swap their positions interchanging left to right and from one side to the other.

- press down the propellers till you 'feel' or hear a clicking in sound.

- on the app choose the normal mode and you are all set to go."

"My son had same problem so I scouted for answer, couldnt find it so i rang helpdesk. To reset drone:-

Turn drone on

Wait for lights to go green

Hold power button for 20 seconds (a little longer for luck)

Release and drone is reset when you turn back on"

press on/off button for 15 seconds, then reboot, you can confirm it by looking if the photo's are deleted!
