Context

Please provide any relevant information about your setup.

• Tutorial No.:[Tutorial 5]
• Mavros: [0.18.4]
• ROS: [Melodic]
• Gazebo: [9]
• Ubuntu: [18.04]
• System Platform: [x64]

Expected Behavior

In tutorial E05, I am able to complete the drone takeoff and I am also able to send commands via Commander (as well as manually changing x/y/z/r/p/y in Gazebo). Expecting the drone to eventually recognize the QR code and land safely.

Current Behavior

Because of the angle of the camera (parallel to the ground) I'm having a hard time choosing (x,y,z) coordinates that allow a good view of the QR code. I have tried the recommended (8,0,0) in the tutorial with no luck. It may seem like a trivial problem but has been a major hang-up.

Maybe you should check your frequency of simulation or try other position to recognize the qr code. Changing the pose of camera on the drone may also help since solve PNP give out the position in QR code coordinate.
