#### Description

XTDrone is a customizable Multi-Rotor UAVs simulation platform based on PX4 and ROS. Now the simulator of XTDrone is Gazebo, and the connection to Airsim is being developed.  XTDrone supports mulitrotors (including quadrotors and hexarotors), fixed wings, VTOLs (including quadplanes, tailsitters and tiltrotors) and rovers.
