Note, I have only fly-by looked at this. I'll review when you ask for it or it goes out of draft.

@PerFrivik I assume the module is not going into PX4 v1.15? Keep me posted when you need a review.

@PerFrivik This feels a bit stalled :-(. Note, there is a "related PR" for a ackermann in https://github.com/PX4/PX4-user_guide/pull/3265

@chfriedrich98 Do we still need this documentation?

[chfriedrich98]

@hamishwillee Could we leave this PR up until https://github.com/PX4/PX4-user_guide/pull/3311 is merged? I based some of my documentation on it and I might copy some more of it, especially the graphics are really good.

[hamishwillee]

Of course!
