Hi
Looking at exercise 5 the xarco files:
where we can change the whole block of code

<link name="upperleg_M1_link">
    <xacro:upper_leg mass="0.01"> <!-- should this not be xacro:blue_shape ?-->

        <cylinder length="0.06" radius="0.0025"/>
    </xacro:blue_shape>
</link>

Hello @ziga.rupret,

Sorry for the late response. Yes, there’s something wrong there for sure. I will have a look at it and solve it as soon as possible.

Hello @ziga.rupret,

Yes, reviewing this section I can tell this is an error in the notebook. It should be like this instead:

<link name="upperleg_M1_link">
    <xacro:blue_shape mass="0.01">
        <cylinder length="0.06" radius="0.0025"/>
    </xacro:blue_shape>
</link>

Best,
