According to wiki/hector_quadrotor_gazebo_plugins, the Gazebo plugin subscribes to geomety_msgs/Twist messages, so publishing these should allow you to control your UAV.

See the rest of that page for more info on the Gazebo plugins.

Good to hear. If the answer helped, accept it by ticking the checkmark on the left. Also, it is considered 'better' to post a comment to an answer, instead of using an answer to comment on one (hope you follow).
