This definitely sounds like a hardware issue, not a ROS issue.<div><br></div><div>It sounds to me like you&#39;re putting too much weight on the Pioneer, and you&#39;ll have to either find a larger platform or find a way to shrink your payload.</div>

Dear all,<br>
<br>
We ran succesful tests using the ROS navigation stack and ROSARIA with a Pioneer 3 platform. We then modified this platform to carry a payload of 35 -40 kilos. It is stable but wont budge since there is some sort of limiter inside that cuts off power when the current gets above some threshold.<br>

Looking into the ROSARIA package gave us hope that it may be possible to remove these limits by modifying some parameters. We tried maximum accelaration, velocity etc. It did improve a bit but cannot yet go over a carpet for instance. It would be of great help if we could get some insight into how we could resolve this issue.<br>

<br>
Thanks and regards,<br>
