Hi Danny

Hi Sigurd,
I am always intrigued by walkers, and this one has particularly
intersting features.
thank you :)

Is it completely auto walking, I mean if you feed
it air, it walks?
Yes it is a auto walker

How long does it take per step, and how long per
cycle?
it takes aboud 9 seconds per cycle, and it takes 6 steps a cycle

What is the gait it uses?
it's useless :p

What are that stats - how many
valves,
16 to make it walk, and i pland 5 extra to make a midstop in the segments to
help it whit the steering

large/small cylinders does it use overall
32 small pistons for the leg lift and drop
8 large pistons (6 for leg swap/2 for control)
8 large pistons to steer the lose segments whit a mid stop sistem

and how does that break down per leg
in the frond and rear leg it uses 6 small pistons (4 for left lift and drop/2
for elbow extention) in the center legs it uses 4 small pistons for lift and
drop only,+ 1 large piston for the leg swap and it uses 2 swiches a leg.

plus the main central control set (if there is any).
it uses 2 control pistons, how operates 2 swiches each.

How is it steered?
i plant to use his boby segments to steer

Would a penumatic circuit diagram for a leg be possible?
each leg uses 4 swiches for leg lift and drop, those 4 swiches are all linked
toghter and operates 2 swiches.
the frond and rear legs also have elbow extention, how is linked to the leg
swap. the frond legs have an extention in his elbow whan it is in front
position, and is contrext when it is in back position. the rear legs are just
opposite.

What is the rubber band loaded system using two pulley peices attached to a
pneumatic valve about?
its to steer the hex, if i hook the steering part up, the outside to should by
linked togeter so there is presure coming from the control unit whan it's in his
senter position

I just have so many questions about this rather
amazing bot.

Could any of your problems be solved by using the earlier discussion
about gaining access to the "fourth port"? As opposed to using a one
way valve? That may allow sucessful mid-stop if that is what you
required.
a midstop is'nt the problem, but i need extra pices and it did not turn to well
when i put it in the turning position


I would love to see the video. Does the video have sound - with
pneumatic I just thought - if you want to avoid a bandwidth drain, how
about stuffing on eDonkey and handing out the tracker link? • i can't follow you :s

It may not work exactly as palnned yet sigurd, but I assure you, it is
most definately still a triumph.

thank you :)

Hi Sigurd, Thanks for your response. (...) What I mean was to use one of the peer-to-peer filesharing networks to share the file, and save yourself the bandwidth of distributing it. Something like eDonkey, which you can simply put a link on a page (...) (18 years ago, 14-Dec-05, to lugnet.technic)
