Hi Josh,

How can I apply torque to a custom robot’s joint. I followed your tutorials and set position publishing to “/set_joint_trajectory” topic but cannot apply torque from my python script. Also, cannot read the applied torque, applied inside Gazebo sim, value subscribing “/joint_states”. How to solve this issue?

Thanks,

Selim
