It does look like the first few characters of arm0.stl starts with "solid First_firstpiece", I guess somehow assimp is confused into thinking the mesh is an ascii stl instead of correctly seeing it as a binary stl? Running it through ivcon removes those characters too, but ultimately, I think this deserves a ticket under robot_model:
Hi Felix,
Make sure that your binary .stl files do not start with the word

"solid", because that would get interpreted as an ascii STL file,
according to the spec. I think the cturtle versions used to handle
this ok, but not the new versions. If this is the case, simply
overwriting the word "solid" with a hex editor into anything else
should fix the issue.
Hope this helps,
