    Hello,

    I'm setting up my VOXL 2 (on a Starling 2 drone) for the first time and running into an issue where no devices show up when I run adb devices. The drone is powered via the external battery, and I can see a solid green LED on the VOXL 2, which I understand indicates that it has booted successfully. I'm connecting the drone to my PC using a USB Type-A to Type-C data cable and have tried multiple known-good cables and USB ports. However, nothing appears in adb devices, and lsusb doesn't list any new devices when I connect the drone. I also monitored the output of dmesg -w and didn’t see any USB events when plugging in the cable.

    I’m using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) with Ubuntu, so I’m wondering if that might be contributing to the issue.

    Any help with troubleshooting this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

      @Tyler-Scott We recommend users to run linux natively as it can be tough to get USB devices to pass to WSL correctly.
