the above pic was just an example.... can anyone tell me which servo is handling the most load? maybe i might just add 2 servos on that joint where the robonova will handle the most load after scaling the size... and will leave the other joints with 1 servo to leave more servos for other body parts...

thanks...

Putting two servo in parallel needs to be done with great care as otherwise each servo will try and move the other, both will get hot and probably fail. It might be a good idea to learn about torque and how servos work before going further.
