Yes that would be too easy....lots of machiney has 2 stage legs.It would be better to copy the real one as closely as possible.

The pics aren't massively clear. I gather that's black string used so far, similar to the 8421 crane boom?
Yeb....the pics are clickable if it helps.

Thanks for the pics. And there I was thinking about legs for walking, when in fact you're trying to build outriggers

Looking good! You've seen my efforts in the flesh, pneumatic cylinders for the vertical stage are easier to implement but the mini la option does give better adjustability..
