Is it possible to perform a dynamic simulation of a swarm of ardupilot quadcopters?

ArduCopter Copter Simulation
1

Hi Everyone,

I am working with Linux based Raspberry Pi drones and I want to make them work as a swarm using Ardupilot. As working in a Vicon room is not always possible is it possible to perform a dynamic simulation of a swarm of ardupilot quadcopters? Could this be done in Gazebo? Any info would be useful.
I’m running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and ROS kinetic and if you need more information from my part please ask.

Thank you all in advance for your help,

Pedro Wunsch

Hello,

What do you mean by dynamic simulation ?
You should be able to launch 254 simulated drone before having id issue.
You could also use gazebo to have 3d simulation.
But depending on your goal, simply use a SITL swarm is enough
