Yo Keegan - Question about mecanum wheels on your latest NE-Five:

Do mecanum wheels drive straight?
(Like dY < 1cm, dHeading < 2 degrees for dX of 1m)?

When you run him around the house and return is the encoder odometry totally bad?

My bot has a bit of "flopsy wheels" causing / with LIDAR and /odom to "lose it" on long excursions around my house.

Thinking about a new bot with wheels instead of with "flopsy" plastic motors

GoPi5Go-Dave now has a (virtual environment) Quantum Processor!

Installed Qiskit-Aer Quantum Simulator, and managed to get a few "example circuits" to run.

I have absolutely no idea what robot Dave can do with his Quantum Processor, nor how to design the logic circuits.

Supposedly a Quantum Processor could run circles around ROS 2 Nav2 (if I add a mobile refrigerator to my robot).
