Hereis a link to a video you may want to watch of it walking. This is a walker I made. It uses a controler and wailks pretty fast. If you guys think I should post this as an Instructable please tell me. Don't forget to vote for this in the Robot contest if you liked it. :D

Howdy, I built a variation of this model, and ran it with the PCS BRAIN controller. Thought to share some images.

Umm, Question. Will it actually lift up one leg at a time, or will it just kind of wobble? I've been trying to figure out how to make one that walks by standing on one leg at a time for who knows how long and,. Well anyway I was just kinda wondering.

When it walks both of it's legs are on the ground, but it walks just fine. One just slides along the ground.

Like Mepain's links suggest, it has been done before. It is not very difficult to make a quadruped, crestind has made one, I have made one, bakenbitz has made two.

I know it's been done before. I just wanted to make my own verision. :D
Whaleman in reply to bannana inventorJul 12, 2008. 10:58 AM
And I am not very sure this qualifies as a robot.
bannana inventor (author) in reply to WhalemanJul 12, 2008. 12:39 PM
I was thinking that too, until I saw a knex walker in the contest so I though,"Hay I'll go for it".
Whaleman in reply to bannana inventorJul 12, 2008. 3:24 PM
So, by entering something that was already in the contest, you expect to win?
bannana inventor (author) in reply to WhalemanJul 12, 2008. 4:32 PM
No. I just wanted my own walker to be in it.

bannana inventor (author) in reply to The JamalamJul 12, 2008. 6:27 AM

The Jamalam in reply to bannana inventorJul 12, 2008. 6:34 AM

bannana inventor (author) in reply to The JamalamJul 12, 2008. 7:02 AM
Oh well, I was just wondering if you made something I didn't see. lol :D
