ROS1 Roboteq fbl2360 package migration

Hello, I am a beginner to ROS, currently working on a project about migrating a ROS1 mobile robot packages to ROS2 Foxy. Meanwhile, we stuck on a package of the motor driver from RoboteqInc. (the model number is FBL2360). But, there is no updated version of the package itself. Do you think it is a better idea to: - Switch the motor driver to the other model with supported package - Stick with migrating the package (ROS1 to ROS2)

Or is it possible to create a new motor driver package???

My current setup for the robot: OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Server ROS version: Foxy

I have migrated a roboteq package to ROS2 . It was originally for HDC/SDC24xx, but I think a lot of the roboteq MCs use the same string queries for motor control, so it could work. I haven't completely finished it but it will run motors based on /cmdvel message and publish odometry.
