If everything went well, you should see a similar output as follows (Note that values may differ): {{{ grappler_angles: [163.343, 149.27, 104.96, 106.45] }}} Replace a similar line in the `robotino_grappler_calibration/config/calibration_values.yaml` with the one from the output above. The grappler is now calibrated and ready for some awesome manipulation stuff. ## AUTOGENERATED DO NOT DELETE ## TutorialCategory ## FILL IN THE STACK TUTORIAL CATEGORY HERE
