Overview
This stack provides packages related to modeling, control and simulation of quadrotor UAV systems. The following packages are available:
hector_quadrotor_urdf provides a generic quadrotor URDF model as well as variants with various sensors.
hector_quadrotor_gazebo contains the necessary launch files and dependency information for simulation of the quadrotor model in gazebo.
hector_quadrotor_teleop contains a node that permits control of the quadrotor using a gamepad.
hector_quadrotor_gazebo_plugins provides plugins that are specific to the simulation of quadrotor UAVs in gazebo simulation.
Tutorials
