How do i make a bot not lift of the ground when accelerating

i have a bot which i have created but the thing is when i give it sudden discreet velocities using ros it tends to lift of the ground and then tends to not settle down easily

You should check your model's inertial properties, it might be too light? Right-click it and View->CoM and View->Inertia

It seems like the problem is with wrong inertial values (moments and center of mass).

These values can be edited directly in the model's SDF or URDF files, look for the <inertial> tag.

Depending on your version of Gazebo, if you're using SDF you can edit the model using the model editor.
