Well, I finally got the bot built but I need help on getting the robot
to shift/distribute its weight or something like that (I've read about
this in some walkers). Because the robot has the right leg motions and
everything but it either moves an inch or doesn't move at all. I've
tried placing tires on the feet (as grips). This is my first attempt at
a real walker/tripod and would really like some suggestions/ideas.

--Some Extra Info--
I'll have some pics pretty soon posted in my LEGO Robotics page:
http://home1.gte.net/ksaddi/mindstorms/ ...The design of the legs looks
weird (Two "front" legs are positioned in a right angle with eachther
while the third one forms the back leg). Sort of like a "Y". This idea
was inspired by some poster talking about how a one-legged gorilla would
walk... Couldn't find the post anymore...I want yer name, man!!
