2026.2_PI1_Grupo1_Diogo (fcte-pi1)FirmwareConfidence: Medium

Firmware still used a provisional 32 mm wheel and 280 counts per turn after hardware measured 34 mm and 360; odometry came out about 21% short and cell counts and turns were wrong. Open question left in the PR: the hardware doc's 360 may count both quadrature channels while firmware counts one, which would make it 180.
