[IMU drift causing robot to drift in RVIZ](https://answers.ros.org/question/209304/imu-drift-causing-robot-to-drift-in-rviz/)

I wonder how this question from 2015 made it question of the week. Also the website link of the questions author [naman](https://answers.ros.org/users/11186/naman/) seems to be broken now (=\> spam). He probably lost the domain. Can someone remove the link please?

Oh wow, I didn’t look at the original date, I was just looking at “latest” on ROS discourse and was like that’s an issue I’ve had in the past. Yeah, there appears to be some domain squatting / replacement. I’ll see what I can do.
