Check out this thread for more details: > [@Stretch2 - Gazebo + MoveIt?](https://forum.hello-robot.com/t/stretch2-gazebo-moveit/787/3): > > Hi @roboor, thanks for following up here. @ebeowulf and I chatted over video call about his question, and I’ll try to summarize our conversation here. To the question about Stretch simulators, there are a few available: Hello Robot maintains a Gazebo Classic simulation of Stretch [in this ROS 1 package](https://github.com/hello-robot/stretch_ros/tree/noetic/stretch_gazebo).

There’s a few reasons for this, including difference in drivers and simulation quirks, but the result i… If you’re looking for an easy simulator to get started with, I’d recommend the Mujoco simulation: > **[mujoco\_menagerie/hello\_robot\_stretch at main · hello-binit/mujoco\_menagerie](https://github.com/hello-binit/mujoco_menagerie/tree/main/hello_robot_stretch)** > > A collection of high-quality models for the MuJoCo physics engine, curated by DeepMind. - hello-binit/mujoco\_menagerie --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.hello-robot.com/t/stretch-simulation/940)._
