    @camharrisvayu QDL would be the correct way forward. I would recommend trying another USB cable and/or different USB port of your PC to see if you have better luck. Sometimes cables/ports can be finicky.

    @tom Hey Tom, thanks for the response -- unfortunately I've tried a few different cables, as well another laptop to run the QDB tool and not getting any luck. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks again

      @camharrisvayu What hardware do you have attached to your VOXL2? Any add-on boards / sensors?

        @tom Yep I have it with the flight deck 2:

        • M0078 board with WiFi dongle (which no longer turns on with the VOXL2)
        • M8N GPS (also no longer turns on)
        • 4-in-1 ESC
        • front and rear stereo cams, tracking cam, hires

          @camharrisvayu And how are you powering it? Wall wart, battery, etc.

              @camharrisvayu Do you have a wall wart you can try with? I'm not sure if that would be the reason for what you're seeing but it doesn't hurt to try

                @tom Unfortunately this didn't work either, QDL is still outputting the same error.

                      @camharrisvayu At this point it may be worth submitting an RMA for this flight deck and we can take a look: https://www.modalai.com/pages/rma
