New owners who have recently built humanoid type A

Probably some obvious advice here, but seeing my CM510 only shipped a few weeks back, it didn't occur to me to check... For new owners (that would be me) who built the humanoid type A and have been using the CM510 with the default installed type A motion and task files as shipped, be aware that you might want to go to the Robotis e-manual site and download the latest humanoid type A motion and task files, and install them to your Bioloid. I've just downloaded both and it's noticeably more stable walking over uneven surfaces, one corner of my room has some wonky floorboards that almost always caused a fall, and between rooms here are metal carpet grippers/rails that I could never walk past without tipping over several times. The comments in the task file say it was modified on 2010/09/29 "Fixed some bugs in WalkExecute". No idea if the motion file has changes as well, as there are no release comments in motion files.

Thanks for that, I purchased premium kit in Dec 2010. The Cd inside it has support site updated upto June 2010. I hope the updates in Dec had some good improved coding lines and yes my Robot also falls even in a slight elevation.
What is the use of Gyro if it falls ? Huh ? Robotis has no answer of this.
Can someone tell me how i can set angles to move Ax12 horns in roboplus type A code :!: :roll:
Cheers m8
