How do i know turtlebot3 Odomentry is working?

Hello everyone,

I recently set up a physical TurtleBot3 Waffle Pi and cloned the latest TurtleBot3 2.1.5 repository for ROS 2 Humble. After starting the bringup on the Raspberry Pi, I accessed the /odom topic from my laptop and ran teleop to monitor the velocity. However, I’m noticing that the velocity values are fluctuating significantly, and I’m unsure if the odometry is functioning correctly. On the other hand, the joint states seem to be updating reliably.

Has anyone experienced similar issues or have any suggestions on how to verify if the odometry is working as expected?

Thanks in advance for any insights!
