Hi there!
I've bought Starling 2 Max (MRB-D0012) kit (MRB-D0012-4-V4-C29-M36-T8-K3)
Controller included in the kit has issues during power on.
Pressing power button resulted in charge level LED light up only. Screen is not turning on, no sound. 
Please help.![5a353938-a6c0-49bd-a770-cd5f2b917878-image.jpeg](https://forum.modalai.com/assets/uploads/files/1786122426209-5a353938-a6c0-49bd-a770-cd5f2b917878-image-resized.jpeg)

Did you do a short press followed by a long press?

That helped. Thanks a lot!
