So I have this Voxl 2 Mini that I've been doing dev stuff with for weeks and this morning it seems it stopped working. LED D1 is green the whole time but DS2 only briefly flashes green once I give it power and then it will flash every time I plug or unplug a USB from the Voxl. It is not communicating with ADB and nothing is coming up on lsusb. I ran through the QDL process but still am having this issue. Any thoughts?

@bendraper Do you have another power module you can test with?

@tom I never ordered a power module but I've tried with a few different supplies now all set for 3.8V.

@tom My power supply also seems to indicate it is pulling nearly 0 current when powered on

@bendraper How are you currently powering the board? Maybe you can share a picture

@bendraper It might be worth acquiring a voxl2 mini power module for development purposes:

@tom let me know if you don't this this is possible but I think the USB-C cable I was using may have killed it. I continued dev work on another mini I had and it started to do weird things like the camera I had connected was no longer recognized and it started to get into a reboot cycle. Switched cables and that other Mini now behaves fine.

@bendraper Mini can get power via USB so it's not out of the question
