[ODE] Actuated arm get stuck into static entities

[Megan Fox]

If you drop a normal dynamic entity (like a box) into the world, does
it interact properly with the other static objects?

Can you, for instance, knock a box around the world with your servo
arm, so long as you don't touch the static world?
