Overview

This package provides a quadrotor model based on hector_quadrotor_urdf that is usable in gazebo. It currently supports the following features:

  • Colored COLLADA Quadrotor mesh model (.dae)
  • URDF description
  • Publishing of ground truth pose and simulated imu data
  • Spawnable in gazebo
  • Dedicated controller for use in gazebo simulation. The UAV can be controlled in gazebo using geometry_msgs/Twist messages on the 'cmd_vel' topic (as used on may other robots, but with added climb rate).

Use

For instructions on how to start simulation of the quadrotor please have look at the following tutorials:

  1. Quadrotor outdoor flight demo

    This tutorial describes how to simulate a quadrotor UAV flying in a outdoor scenario using the hector_quadrotor stack.

  2. Quadrotor indoor SLAM demo

    This tutorial describes how to simulate a quadrotor UAV performing indoor SLAM using the hector_quadrotor stack.
