      @MaxG I would first check to see whether the board is coming up in fastboot with fastboot devices. If not it can be forced into fastboot mode by pressing and holding the fastboot button on the M0090 add-on board and powering the RB5-Flight then releasing the button.

      If you can get fastboot up, you can then re-flash the board, following the docs here: https://docs.modalai.com/Qualcomm-Flight-RB5-system-image/#

        Found the tiny button (hold for 30sec), got me into fastboot. adb and WiFi came backup (with a little patience). Now I am back up and running. Thank you ! 🙂
