[ros-users] Controlling URDF Joint Angles

[John Hsu]

Hi Sebastian,
Right now there is no direct interface to set joint angles for a model
simulated in gazebo.  Will controlling joint angles by applying forces to
the joint/bodies or using a mechanism controller suffice or are you looking
for ways to set joint states directly and bypass the physics?
