Decided to try a simplified design for the biped so I could experiment with the rotating hip joint (my robonova doesn't have rotating hips). So I redesigned the legs and hips of the Bioloid Biped and ended up with this.......

It is a simple leg with 3 DOF and obviously no knee joint but he does walk and with the addition of the rotational waist can even stay looking ahead. Here is a movie of his first few steps if anyone is interested

Excellent! He didn't even make unexpected sidesteps. Your working progress is clearly ahead of mine :!:
