I am trying to run the X3 UAV model using ignition gazebo. However, After spawning the vehicle, the imu topics are not being publsihed. The world file is as the following, which comes from https://github.com/ignitionrobotics/i...

The model contains the <sensor> tag, but at the moment, ign-gazebo requires you to add the IMU system to the <world> tag in the SDFormat file like so:

<plugin filename="libignition-gazebo-imu-system.so" name="ignition::gazebo::systems::Imu"> </plugin>
