The wiki pages of the hector_quadrotor stack were a bit outdated, as we moved some plugins from one package to another during the transition from fuerte to groovy to hydro. I am sorry. I updated the wiki a couple of minutes ago.
You will find the simple controller plugin for Gazebo in the hector_quadrotor_gazebo_plugins package now. The plugin does not invoke a real controller that outputs motor voltages, but only generates pseudo forces and torques that make the simulated quadrotor look and behave like a real one.
The hector_quadrotor_controller package was originally meant for our more fancy real-time controller also running on the real vehicle, but I have not found the time yet to integrate it in gazebo properly.
Please add comments here if there are further questions.
