the phoenix legs are machined aluminum right? so if you used one of the longer servo savers you can probably spot drill and tap a couple holes to bolt the legs to them.
I’m not sure I’d want to test concept with $125 servos… if it stripped the gears or burned out a motor I think I’d get way too depressed. 
probably should work out the math in a spread sheet or something first. 
Nice servos! but at $124 X 18, they’d make a rather expensive hexapod!
With a 2" leg, you’d get about 7"/sec (?) not enough to defy gravity! Longer legs, more speed at the foot.

wow…you guys sound like your talkin basic math and some of that is way over my head. I got a lot to learn i see but i just need to read the rest of the forum and get my kit. That may answer most of my other ?s
If you really want the bot to get some air time, you will probably need something like pneumatics to have the needed quick motion. I’d look at something like the guts of a CO2 paintball gun and a piston. Battlebot flipper setups have fast action. The leg attachement to the body would have to be changed signficantly.
speaking of air time, maybe there could be something attached to the legs…maybe like a jumpjet or maybe some compressed air used to give it a moments lift in junction with a jumping motion from the legs. too many ideas but im still in the brainstorming phase so im looking at any and all crazy contraptions to test out.
