Moving charging station
I am having trouble with the vacuum lining up correctly with the metal sensors on the base station, it keeps going in at an angle and not straight, so now I have had to but the base station on an angle... I think I may need to move the base station to a larger area with more room around it, how do I go about moving the base station? can I keep my maps or will I loose everything and have to re map the whole house again? Can I just literally unplug it an move it to a different location or is there a process?
Many thanks

There's no need to remap the entire house, don't worry. Simply relocate the dock and the robot vacuum and start docking in the new location, once it is done, dock's new location will be updated on the map.

@JessRV30 I had this problem when I first got my RV20 and the reason it was backing up on a slight angle was because of the weave of my carpet. I ended up getting some thin wood (mdf or ply) and covered it in black vinyl (for aesthetics) to make a small flat platform for it. I sanded down the front edge to make it easier for the vacuum.
I also moved the dock to a different room. Set the vac about half a metre in front of it and pressed the return home button and it docked and updated the map automatically. I also changed the dock location in the tapo app, not sure if that mattered.
