Does fixed joint have a bug in sdf ?
I use gazebo7 with ubuntu16.04 to simulate a four wheel robot. If my sdf model has a fixed joint (not for the wheel but for a cemera) like below, the wheel rotation velocity will oscillate, see the picture below the code.
<!-- the zed joint -->
<joint type="fixed" name="zed_hinge">
<pose>0 0 0 0 0 0</pose>
<child>stereocamera</child>
<parent>base_link</parent>
</joint>
If I change the fixed joint to a revolute joint with all other things the same, the result will be much better shown below.
<!-- the zed joint -->
<joint type="revolute" name="zed_hinge">
<pose>0 0 0 0 0 0</pose>
<child>stereocamera</child>
<parent>base_link</parent>
<axis>
<xyz>0 0 1</xyz>
</axis>
</joint>
I want to know, does fixed joint works properly?
