I've seen A LOT off stuff on here that claims to walk. Some look cool like that ATAT but all they do is shuffle. At 2 mph. This really walks. It even runs. It has a top speed of 20 mph on level ground. Pitch up and down rythmicly to walk. Roll to turn. yaw controls the turret. vtol, gun elevation. Based on the lynxmotion AH2 servo robot. it has 3 degrees of freedom per leg and walks using an alternating tripod gait. Throttle spools up the railgun.

Scarab!!!
Yes I know the actual scarab only has 4 legs but this looks so much like a scarab!!!
Giant enemy crab! attack its weak point for massive damage!
Thanks very much for making a one
@TheJohnnyMan thank you
Clickable mobile link. This thing is awesome, great job!
@FennVectorCWA I did , the link is in the discription
Ill upvote if you make mobile friendly one (remove guns)
AWSOME!!!!!
yes! it got featured!
Very cool, and as you say, it walks like a champ
@Scifieart Well if it was all for the legs, then those are good bonuses :)
@Scifieart if you like I could upload a fixed version. Was going to re-upload but then it got featured
The turret is on purpose though, I liked how when TurNing it would stay put wherever you wanted, instead of centering, like it does on the tank in gta v. Makes aiming easier, you just do it separately. Very easy to do on my gamepad.
The cameras look like headlights, so that's what I used them as.
@JolanXBL the bouncyNess is caused by the wheels on the bottom I found without some sort of shocks the legs would fall off from the impact. The other things are merely accidental, all my efforts went into the legs in hopes others might use them, to make more working mecha.
It's very bouncy! The camera in FP view turns in the opposite as the turret, is that supposed to happen? Also turret spins freely as it walks, and Cameras 4-10 are in the same spot.
@Scifieart Neither did I on Monsoon, lol
@laSoul I'm working on a chicken walker now, no promises.
@Scifieart Oh and wow, I was thinking to make a tachikoma or the tank tachikoma too next xD
@Scifieart Very smart representation for the Hexapod, utilizing 3 legs for propulsion on either side is quite nice! I'm seeing if I can make one with only 4 or 2 legs, Ilooked at an AT-AT design someone made on here and it worked for what it was, but I want to kick it up a peg one day :P
@laSoul I think I'll try and make a tachikoma next
360 degree rotation would help a lot then I could just use cranks and use less motors. Keep working on it! I found it helpful to look at servo robots. since The motors in this game work like servos. I just imitated the one in this video

@Scifieart I'm flattered dude! I'm reuploading the Monsoon one, seeing it just broke for 0 reason after the upload. I'll try and figure out a cimpact walking system soon, or maybe once we have 360 rotation on motors! >.>
@laSoul Hoped you'd like it. I was inspired to make this by your mecha. I just wanted something that walked better. Keep making them,this site needs more mechs
Beautiful
Dude nice job
