Hello! I'm using tum_simulator on ROS and Gazebo. When I do roslaunch cvg_sim_gazebo quadrotor.launch appears the

WARN: The root link base_link has an inertia specified in the URDF, but KDL does not support a root link with an inertia.  As a workaround, you can add an extra dummy link to your URDF.

The quadrotor doesn't move correctly with respect x-y axis. My URDF are:

Can someone help me? thanks you.

They are on a different computer. Matlab in on Mac and ROS on Ubuntu

Hello! I'm trying to interface Matlab and ROS. I've a service in ROS and I want to do a client of this service in Matlab but when I do:

rosinit ('http://....:11311')
client = rossvcclient('/launch_by_service')

Matlab and ROS make me an error as this:

Failed to create a /launch_by_service service client.
[ERROR] ServiceClientHandshakeHandler - Service client handshake failed: client wants service /launch_by_service to have md5sum e1d8c050aed05957d504a68117eb0528, but it has 546971982e3fbbd5a41e60fb6432e357. Dropping connection.

When I do rosservice list from Matlab I see the service and the type. Can somebody help me? Thanks!

I've ROS on Vitual Box and Matlab on OS X. I connected them through a port and when I do rosinit, rosined list, rostopic list Matlab works without problem whit topics and node of ROS. When I do rostopic echo /topic name/ Matlab says "the class 'robotics.ros.Subscriber' contains a parse error, cannot be found on MATLAB's search path, or is shadowed by another file with the same nam" and ROS "couldn't find an AF_INET address for /hostname/" But the port it's ok because other function works.Thanks for the help
