Let me see if i get this straight:

You would have 2 servo motors on 1 leg, 1 to lift the leg and 1 turning it?

I doubt you will get it in 130 kg though, with hydraulics and pnuematics and the Hardox, but i cant say for sure since I dont know the weight of each servo (which will not be light either to have that much torque).

[leorcc]

oh and btw, the design itself looks great!

[craig_anto]

your quiet right 130kg is way off, dont know where that went wrong, ill recheck that
yea one to go up one to turn

[pcbore]

As far as I know, true walkers have a 200 KG limit, so youve got some sparee to play with there.

[leorcc]

True walkers can indeed be 200kg in the heavyweight class, which this robot would definatly qualify as.

8 battlepacks 36V is 20kg of battery. you might want to cut down on that.
