Wouldn’t it be cool to build a Star Wars AT-AT that I can ride on? I’m using large 3D prints made with a 1.2mm Nozzle, and aluminium extrusion and plates to make the main structure. Each half-leg has two motors driving an intermediate gear, before driving a gear track which operates the parallelogram mechanism. Next time I’ll be putting the chassis on top and working out the control and inverse kinematics.
