Do you have any videos of it walking?

Are you sure? yes | no

Here's the video we did for our Kickstarter campaign: I'll try to shoot some more videos of it walking and an assembly guide soon. Thanks!

Are you sure? yes | no

Hi Radomir,

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have to look into the SG92R Servos! I hadn't given much thought to 3DOF Legs simply because I wanted to keep the servo count to a minimum to make it more affordable and reduce the buyout part count.

Are you sure? yes | no

Hi, you might be interested in some of my experiments with #Tote.

From what I see in the pictures, I have some suggestions/questions:

* Try SG92R servos instead of MG90S. They are lighter, cheaper and stronger. They use carbon fiber gears instead of metal gears.

* Consider using plastic (acrylic or nylon) bolts to reduce the weight.

* Have you thought about going full 3dof?

Are you sure? yes | no
