    Since yesterday, when I turned on the Starling drone, it just sits there. It's not getting armed. When I checked for ADB shell, it's not getting connected, and an error comes up saying no devices found. When I checked the forum, it said it might be bricked due to some file loss. We followed the unbrick tutorial, and after successful flashing of the latest QDL M0054.14.1a-flat-v3, the device is showing up as Qualcomm bulk something. However, ADB still isn't getting connected.
    Please note that I am unable to enter adb shell and fast boot mode .

    For unbrick I followed this
    https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-unbricking/

    How can I solve this?

      Hi @david-devassy ,

      Some Starling drones have shipped with an SOC that has different trustzone configuration, can you please try this download instead that I just posted?

      The same QDL process can be used. Please advise if you still have issues after, otherwise I'd install the latest platform release on top of this after flashing through QDL. Thanks!
