Firstly, follow this page to put the drone in offboard control mode through PX4:

The following page shows how to run the drone in offboard control using ROS:

To run a simulation using Gazebo, enter the following commands in your terminal:

cd <path_to_Firmware>/Firmware
make posix_sitl_default gazebo

This will bring up the PX4 shell:

[init] shell id: 140735313310464
[init] task name: px4

\_|     \/   \/     |_/

px4 starting.
