AMCL / Hector_Slam problem

edit

Hello !

Actually I'm working on a SLAM robot using a Raspberry PI3B with Ubuntu Mate 16.04 et ROS Kinetic.

I started with the mapping (using Hector_Slam) and the result was pretty good.

For the localization, I use in a first time a laser_scan_matcher node to get the pose and rotation of the robot and the result was pretty good without any IMU data and ACML or EKF techniques.

But using the scan_matching I have big problems when I make big rotation with my robot and the rotation drift and my mapping is wrong.

So I search how to use AMCL to make better localisation/rotation prediction. But the result is even worse ! And I get a drift instantly when I rotate the robot.

Below you will see all my information, do you see any problems in my using of AMCL ?

Do I strictly need an IMU for get good rotations predictions ? Can I just do not use the rotation for my SLAM project and just use the pose prediction ?
