I had the same problem when I run roslaunch, so I have changed command in the tag to default, this solved the problem. Then, I tried changing to default to textfile However, I encounter another problem which says that it can not find the file and also give me traceback for files in the opt/ros/noetic/lib/python3/dist-packages/ (some python files). Do you know what is the problem?

The first error before changing the command: redefining global symbol: pi when processing file: /home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_description/urdf/quadrotor_base.urdf.xacro included from: /home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_description/urdf/quadrotor.urdf.xacro included from: /home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_description/urdf/quadrotor.gazebo.xacro No such file or directory: /home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_gazebo/urdf/quadrotor_plugins.gazebo.xacro [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_gazebo/urdf/quadrotor_plugins.gazebo.xacro' when processing file: /home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_description/urdf/quadrotor.gazebo.xacro RLException: while processing /home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_gazebo/launch/spawn_quadrotor.launch: Invalid tag: Cannot load command parameter [robot_description]: command [['/opt/ros/noetic/lib/xacro/xacro', '/home/parallels/catkin_ws/src/hector_quadrotor_noetic/hector_quadrotor/hector_quadrotor_description/urdf/quadrotor.gazebo.xacro', 'base_link_frame:=/base_link', 'world_frame:=world']] returned with code [2].

Param xml is The traceback for the exception was written to the log file

The error after changing command to default:

roslaunch hector_quadrotor_gazebo quadrotor_empty_world.launch or even roslaunch hector_quadrotor_demo outdoor_flight_gazebo.launch

Sorry, but I don't know why it¿s happening :/, may be, just may be... the workspace folder name, mine is "catking_ws".

Here is a video of demonstration:

May you attach a Image with console error, please?

[Fatimah-Alahmed]

I have tried to add a file(Quadrotor_plugins.gazebo.xacro), the result is that now gazebo opens with the drone. but when I try to operate it using( rosrun teleop_twist_keyboard teleop_twist_keyboard.py ) it is not running. However, there is an error when using (roslaunch hector_quadrotor_gazebo quadrotor_empty_world.launch)

[RAFALAMAO]

Where did you clone and compile de package, "path"?

[Juann-SPS]

I have the same error thats happening in the first image, do you have any idea of what could be making such an error or how it could be trespassed/solved?
