Hello!
Updated ROS and outlined problems in synchronization VESC HW 4.12 FW 2.18.
"robot_state_publisher / state_publisher?
[ERROR] Out-of-sync with VESC, discarding 5 bytes "

Could you please tell me if you need to update the VESC firmware or prescribe the new turtle's movement node?

Hi!
The ROS version should have no impact on the VESC driver. I have seen the out-of-sync error message in the past, but that was caused by a VESC with firmware major version 3. Support for version 3 firmware is added in the FW3 branch of the VESC subrepo. I have switched to this version a while back and have had no issues with that.
