Hi, I"m not able to add these 2 elements as RObot Model is missing from the viewer and I don’t see where to add it from the add panel window. I figur in ted out te frame error I Was getting(Saw an old question regardign tat) but in their screen shot tey at least had RobotModel listed

Instructions from course
You will have to add two elements in RVIZ:

  • RobotModel: In this case, select the robot_description variable for the RobotDescription field
  • TF: It will turn green as soon as you select the correct fixed frame, in this case, base_link. Deactivate the names to see the frames better.
