Is it possible to implement my own flight controller into a URDF which extracted from solidworks?

I want to make a gazebo simulation for my research. I had obtained the urdf from Solidworks yet, I was not able to visualize the quadcopter in the gazebo. Also, after the visualization, I would like to implement a flight controller that we previously designed with phyton I guess. I don't know that whether it is possible but if it is where should I start?

A few notes:

The URDF simply specifies how to visualize the robot - it does not include any control code or logic.
For gazebo you can convert your URDF into an SDF file, which tells gazebo how to visualize the robot.
In addition to your URDF/SDF file you'll actually need to write some code to tell Gazebo how to control the robot. I'd suggest you start by looking at the Gazebo tutorials on building a robot
