Iris Drone jitters after adding a kinect camera on top of it

Hello everyone,

I created a fixed joint in gazebp between the kinect camera and the iris drone, the camera was fixed on top of the drone exactly as i wanted but when i try to fly the drone, it keeps moving randomly and going in all directions not going to the position i want

I tried changing a lot of things like the inertia and mass of the camera, the joint parameters like the friction and damping, i even tried it with another drone(Solo) but still it is not working

anyone who has an idea about why this is happening please reply, am up for trying any suggestions because am desperate right now, I appreciate your help

Maybe you need to retune all the controller gains since you’ve added a big weight on the top?
