Hey guys,
I am new to ROS. Actually I am facing the following problem:
I want to add multiple drones to gazebo. I figured out, I can do this with Firmware/launch/multi_uav_mavros_sitl.launch. This works great. I can see my iris drones in gazebo. However, I would like to add a camera to these drones which is quiet challenging for me.
I tried to add something to the iris_base.xacro file as described here
This works when I want to see the image in rviz, however I cannot see the image in qgroundcontrol what I would like to.
Then I tried to change the sdf file of iris, so that I am now having a camera on my iris and I can see the image in Qgroundcontrol which is nice. However, I cannot use the multi_uav_mavros_sitl.launch anymore. But I found the multi_uav_mavros_sitl_sdf.launch script which I thought would be the same just with using the sdf model.
At this step I am facing the problem that when I run the script I get:
NUC8i7BEH:~$ '/home/falke/start_multi_mavros_px4_sitl_sdf .sh'

Does someone has an idea how to fix it? Really appreciate any kind of help.
