    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?

      @david-devassy I'd recommend sending in an RMA: https://www.modalai.com/pages/rma and we'll get things sorted
