The expected solution for a urdf of a flying robot is that the urdf will contain the robot, and the connection to the world will be done through a localization node which publishes the position of the robot in free space. Usually in relationship to a map, and the URDF does not encompass the total movements of the robot.

Update: The position of the robot in free space is usually captured by the tf coordinate frame. And it can represent a full freespace position and orientation.
