Drone not detected on laptop

[Torqoholic]

Hello all. I’m really happy that this community is so responsive. Thanks so much for all the help.
Anyway, i spoke to a couple of technicians. Turns out, the IC of the USB could be the culprit. I’ll know for sure by next week. Shall update you all once i get confirmation

So many bench techs I've met that can't work a soldering iron.
I would not let them mess with the ic chips.
First suspect would be the connector or cable.
Charging only takes 2 pins and data takes the other 2.

I would let DJI do the repairs.
Not being in the US at least you can get it back from them.
I've heard DJI is very reasonable in repair cost.

Watch out using 3rd party repair.

Cheers,

I even reached out to DJI and their official support guy was the first to point out that it is a problem with IC. Unfortunately DJI is not officially present in India. So I’ll have to ship it to HongKong which may cost me half the price of the drone. We have some well known repair guys in India. I’ll have to take it to one of them.
