My wife was looking through some video tapes, searching for something as irelevant as our wedding! To my happy surprise she found an old robot project of mine, my first QuadraPod! Not much to say, 8 servos, sticks, testing & fun :) Made before LMR existed. As I remember it was tuned to walk pretty OK, however it was always sot of dragging the legs, due to the way it was constructed.
