Ground Robots Need the New ground_docker
Ground robots are set up with ground_docker. Dog 166 (if it exists) is set up perfectly and is the template for the other robots. All the others need to be set up with the new ground_docker.
Set Up the RTK Ground Station First
This robot uses RTK corrections from the ground station. Before you do anything else, set up the RTK ground station.
