Hello Eric,
I’m not sure about this creation. I’ve two feelings which are very different.
The first is on how you incorporated the NXT-technology into this Mecha. I’m
absolutely sure that static pictures can’t transport the dynamic this
creation
shows in real life. I’m also fascinated of the way you incorporated gears,

are strong enough to hold all the weight added by the NXT-components.
The second one is on the overall look. The motors are disturbing the shape.
They are really big. All in all the proportions are not as good as usually in
your creations.
So I count Red Quad as a one experimental step on your way to a well
proportioned bigger creation which might incorporate even more dynamic
capabilities. And I think this is the goal you’re heading for...
Thanks for shareing
Marco
