> So @zlite you are using a standard donkeycar with PCA9685 and you have also enabled the OLED `USE_SSD1306_128_32 = True` ? Or are you trying to use the RC...

@zlite The defaults in config.py are for a standard donkeycar with PCA9685. You will want to use the configuration described in`software setup` link. I used that setup with my RC...

Output pins can be sourced from GPIO (using either the RPi.GPIO libarary or the PiGPIO) library and/or they can be sourced via a PCA9685. We use pin specifiers that define...

The error is saying that there are mixed pin addressing modes in use; Adafruit Blinka is using BCM numbering, the drivetrain is using board number. You could switch BCM addressing...

See my RPLidar experiments at https://github.com/Ezward/rplidar I did some work to see if we could stream in measurements rather that wait for an entire 360 degree scan. See `stream_lidar.py` for...

>  >  So I think you are saying is that zero degrees is marked on the diagrams using the x-axis arrow, in both cases pointing down. And also,...

I don't understand what is front or back of scanner, but I think you are saying the zero heading is pointing up in the diagrams (opposite of what I was...

I agree we should recommend that user's mount their lidar in this 'natural' way where zero heading is pointing forward, but that is not mandatory. We can provide the FORWARD_ANGLE...

See my RPLidar experiments at https://github.com/Ezward/rplidar I did some work to see if we could stream in measurements rather that wait for an entire 360 degree scan. See `stream_lidar.py` for...

I did find another issue regarding accuracy of the current RPLidar implementation the LidarPlot part that plots the lidar. The LidarPlot assumes that angles increase counter-clockwise as is normal in...
