Task 3: ROS service call delay issue

Hi,
In solving task3 we have encountered the following problem:
Without including the service call "stop_t3_1" everything works correctly. As soon as we put this service call it seems like Gazebo stops receiving the control commands for a while, causing a considerable instability in the robot(making the insertion phase fail).
Has anyone else noticed such kind of behavior?

Regards,
Ninad

Hi Ninad,

When /stop_t3_1 is called, simulator saves the current position of the robot. When you call /start_t3_2, robot will be back into this position with no speed and waits till it receives a command.
Hope it helps.

Best,
Mathieu
