Fast-Planner VS rotors_simulator

hector_quadrotor is the "go-to" sim environment for drone tasks, but it is not the most well-maintained framework. The HKUST group recently published some interesting work at ICRA2020. It appears they built their own simulator to design and test their algorithms. Might be worth looking into.

Hi, I'm trying to build ["rotors_simulator"](https://github.com/ethz-asl/rotors_simulator) on Ubuntu 20.04 (ROS Noetic). Does anyone who know the whole installation of this? I worked well on Ubuntu 18.04, but mine is not :(

I'm trying to build the rotors package {https://github.com/ethz-asl/rotors_simulator}

-I'm trying to build the RotorS package i followed the ubuntu 16.04 (instruction 2 & 3) ethz-asl/rotors_simulator: RotorS is a UAV gazebo simulator (github.com)

Please checkout this package: https://github.com/ethz-asl/rotors_simulator They have done all the work for you. You can conveniently modify the model parameters in the SDF file

Yes, you can look into rotors_simulator which includes many research drones with a variety of sensor options you can customize. It also includes so basic attitude and position controllers to get you started, which you can write your own for learning purposes or use within a higher level navigation framework.

One other option is to use the RotorS Simulation package for ROS developed by ASL, ETH-Z. https://github.com/ethz-asl/rotors_simulator
