Hello, for some reasons, i cannot open simulation with the parrot\_drone in gazebo from this rosject.  
Is it just me ?  
Thank you!

I am at my very beginning with ROS, so I’m a newbie 😅 .  
When I was looking at the tutorial, the person there just clicked run on the rosject and a gazebo window appeared and he could visualize the 3d model and everything.  
Mine is empty, can you please provide me with some steps so I can get a visualization on the rosject?  
Also there is no error

I was doing a search and I found an old post with the same problem: [Sjtu ardrone problem with Gazebo](https://get-help.robotigniteacademy.com/t/sjtu-ardrone-problem-with-gazebo/10435)  
If you follow the instructions you will be able to run gazebo with the parrot drone.  
Anyway, since you say you are starting, I recommend you take a look at the course "Programming Drones with ROS ", where they explain in more detail how to handle the parrot and you have the setup already prepared
