Hi @Vlados09, thanks for the PR. It looks like a good feature however I've marked it as draft as we need to decide whether this repo is the right place for your addition.

It introduces a new dependency and I think it might be better as a standalone project rather than part of this plugin library which chiefly concerned with integrating ArduPilot SITL with Gazebo sim.

Could you add some more detail on how you see this feature being used and how you see it integrating with the flight controller / SITL.

Hi! Sorry for the lack of details on this one, I want to add a camera to a drone within SITL without going via ROS. I tried to follow instructions here:

But they are outdated as the PX4 plugin only supports the older gazebo version, this essentially re-uses the PX4 camera plugin but migrates it to the new gazebo version.
