  Re: 3 segments hexapod
 
Hi Sigurd, I am always intrigued by walkers, and this one has particularly intersting features. Is it completely auto walking, I mean if you feed it air, it walks? How long does it take per step, and how long per cycle? What is the gait it uses? (...) (19 years ago, 13-Dec-05, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Vehicle with square wheels
 
(...) Fantastic work. I hadn't even started my attempt. I like your using the battery box as the weight -- it's very simple and compact. I noticed from the video that it tends to veer left. Are the wheels losing traction when they're fully flat? (19 years ago, 12-Dec-05, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
