According to README, we need step described as below to setup aero.

roscd aero_description
./setup.sh typeF  # including catkin build aero_startup
source ~/.bashrc

In this case, I set up typeF version aero. If I set up other type, how to check current type?

usually, when you load the model via aero_std, it should show the name of the model being loaded however, this only works if you have changed the model name written in the urdf

otherwise, you should check the generated urdf under aero_description/robots and see if it is combining the correct configurations.

also, if you are using your own robot_shop package, i recommend writing your own readme in that package and copy and paste from there everytime you do a new setup
