In the terminal, cd into the PX4-Simulation folder and run: make px4_sitl gz_vtol1_baylands
This will open the vtol1 model (basic vtol with a VLP16 Lidar added to it) in the Baylands world in Gazebo Harmonic. To view the Lidar data, you will need to make sure you have the adequate PX4 to ROS2 bridge packages in your desired ROS2 workspace to connect Gazebo topics into ROS.
Release notes and supporting information for PX4 releases can be found on the Developer Guide.
The PX4 User Guide explains how to assemble supported vehicles and fly drones with PX4. See the forum and chat if you need help!
This Developer Guide is for software developers who want to modify the flight stack and middleware (e.g. to add new flight modes), hardware integrators who want to support new flight controller boards and peripherals, and anyone who wants to get PX4 working on a new (unsupported) airframe/vehicle.
