Looking at SSClagorpion from the front........ and only looking at one of the
two leg groups:
__
/ / Down
__
\ \ Down
__
\ \ Up
__
/ / Up
In this case we'll need to have half the sidways pistons expanded and half
contracted all the time. Otherwise all the legs will thrust away from the body
and then back. Right?
__
/ \ Down
__
\/ Down
__
/ \ Up
__
\/ Up
This scenario does not lead to walking, right?
