Hi,

probably you will get a more qualified answer from one of the Hector guys soon since stefan kohlbrecher is quite active here, but until then ill try :).

mapping_default.launch should be indeed the right launch file, and it seems like they changed it a little bit since they wrote the tutorial. so you can either change base and odom frame by changing

<arg name="base_frame" default="base_footprint"/> <arg name="odom_frame" default="nav"/>

or by changing

as described in the tutorial.

I am assuming you are providing the requiered tfs as described in the tutorial?

<arg

  <arg default="base_footprint"

default="nav"

or by changing

param name="base_frame" value="$(arg base_frame)"   param name="odom_frame" value="$(arg odom_frame)"

as described in the tutorial.

or are you planning to use the provided bag file or gazebo? in both cases it should work out of the box...
