Robot does not drive far after leaving the base #11

When I start with a docked robot, and command the robot to back out of the base through /cmd_vel the robot just moves back about 1 meter and then stops. It can move back into the base. I use ros2 run teleop_twist_keyboard teleop_twist_keyboard and buttons i,, to move the robot.

By default the Create 3 has a backup limit because the cliff sensors are only positioned on the front half of the robot. You can override the safety settings by using the Create 3 webserver. See https://iroboteducation.github.io/create3_docs/webserver/application/ for more details.

Thanks @roni-kreinin, that possiblity of the existance of any hardware protections was just confusing me.
