Usage of gimbal

[bhenriquezsoto]

Hi, I hope you're doing okay!

I've been trying to use the gimbal but I'm having a problem when I try to set a position for the joints to move. I don't know why but when I pass a position to move with the controller of the joints, it goes back to the original position (and that's unwanted for me as I want to maintain the last position). I've been searching a fix but I didn't get any solution. Do you happen to know how can I fix this??

Im using ubuntu 24.04, gazebo harmonic, px4 1.15, ros2 jazzy and the latest version of px4-gazebo.models. I'm getting this situation of going to the position and then coming back using this code:

gz topic -t /model/x500_gimbal_0/command/gimbal_roll -m gz.msgs.Double -p 'data: 1.2'

Thanks in advance and have a great day!

@bhenriquezsoto I don't know anything about this topic, but if you want support debugging I'd normally expect a precise description of your setup so that someone else could reproduce the problem.

Done, thanks!

@Jaeyoung-Lim I don't know if you can advise on next-steps debugging?
