BusterHaus Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 It seems that Santa's Sleighs are all the rage this year. Here's my contribution. Merry Christmas. Quote
teos Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 Awesome! I didn't realize the feet were reindeer until the video showed Rudolph. Quote
Technic Jim Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 It looks great! However, is it quick enough to travel the world in one night?! Also, do you have any pictures of the walking mechanism? Cheers, Jim Quote

Also, do you have any pictures of the walking mechanism? Cheers, Jim The walking mechanism is based on the Fleet-Footed Insect by Yoshihito Isogawa. Instructions for his version are available here. It's quite a beautiful piece of engineering,it stays very level while walking. I beefed up the leg mechanism to support the extra weight and built a different motor chassis. As for speed, I'm sure Santa has some magic up his sleeve that allows him to travel the whole world in one night. Edited December 24, 2016 by BusterHaus Quote
Andy D Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 Very, very nice! Santa is really riding in style now! Andy D Quote
nick97 Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 looks great! That's really something different Quote
dr_spock Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Neat. I like the lit red nose. Seems like the perfect ride for the Grinch to grab other people's presents. Merry Christmas to you. Quote
