We are using the VOXL2 Mini with the M0041-4 power module on a 6S drone. I had been testing it on the bench with a 24V power supply without issue for the last few weeks. I was moving it onto the drone which is 6S and soldered power wires directly onto the ESC battery pads and added and XT30 to connect to the power module. When I plugged in the power module it sparked and I quickly unplugged. I have double checked polarity after the fact and it is correct. I put a multimeter on the xt30 and measured 25.1V. I do not see what I did wrong to make it fry. The IC that blew is the actual voltage regulator (marked 327;LGHW;8937 on the IC). Unfortunately I tried powering the VOXL2 mini up with another M0041-4 and my power supply and that is dead too. What am I doing wrong? Let me know if there is more information you need.
