I am trying to use my own robot instead of the default Turtlebot in this environment. I have mesh and urdf files for my own robot. Which files do I have to modify to make the change? Also, which files do I modify to increase the robot's speed? Do I have to make changes to the Turtlebot sensors as well? Thanks for your time :D

Please do not double post your questions. To your Question: Have you done all the tutorials?, Which ROS version are you working with? ... We need some more information to help.

Thanks Lennart. I am sorry I thought my Question didn't go through the first time. I am using Melodic and I have tried doing as many tutorials as I could find but I'm still confused about a few things. I basically want to replace my robot or atleast remodel the TurtleBot in this environment. Thanks!

Hi, I'm still guessing what could help you. Which TurtleBot-Programm are you using? Do you know TF-Frame? It can help in relocating and moving the robot. It would help to know what's the purpose of modifying the robot.

P.S.: I never worked with AWS. So I can't answer your question directly. I can only give clues.

I just noticed there is a explanation on GitHub. So try to find out what the program does. I think robot_controller.html is linking to the files you are searching. robot_ws/src/turtlebot3/turtlebot3_navigation/param is should do the navigation, speed could be a part of it. So please specify you question: What have you tested, what worked, what didn't?
