There's the fast walk template for download. Then RN-1 won't have to do all those 90 degree turns. Just have all the leg and ankle screws fastened down with Loktite or finger nail polish so they don't vibrate out. A faster turn is also suggested which can be accomplished with a wider turn stride.

I choose the cartwheels instread of walking for speed and stability. Big Foot tends to wobble quite a bit during walking, and after several steps falls over. Now, I could have modified the default walk (or fast walk) code to improve stability, but, due to time pressure, decieded the path of least resistance was to use cartwheels as the primary means of locomotion.

Has anyone imlemented ZMF or COG on their RN? I would like to put either on mine to improve walking stability and speed.
