Well done ! .

Just got my Cyberbug announced on this blog. http://technicgears.wordpress.com/2013/10/12/hard-work-by-dan-olsen/ Not bad at all !!

Finally ! A new video of my Cyberbug Mark III. I would like have Efferman's permission that another guy on Mocpages have asked me. He would like to post the pictures on a webside called technicgears.wordpress.com.

A small update on my Cyberbug mark II. And the next version. Much faster, but it's still in the develop mode. Have only tried a small walking test. Maybe i will add some springs on this too, but have to buy them first .....

Some news. I'am working on the next Cyberbug Mark III. Thanks to Effermans walkers on Brickshelf i have discovered a new and much better leg geometry ... Hope he don't mind i have made a copy of these legs. But they are stronger & much faster. Pictures will follow soon, so watch this space !!!

Hello everybody ! I got a problem with my gearbox i have build today. Look at the first picture, you can see the green axle is the input and the red and blue are the outputs. In the first picture the red axle is selected to turn the red & blue axles the same way. In the next one it's selected to turn them opposite. Now ! heres the catch, the red axle has to be fixed and only the green input axle does the selecting between the two modes ??? Have been trying all day now with a lot of head scratching !!!!

Thanks alot rm8. I would love to make at much nicer version maybe in red or a blue version. Or how about a yellow one ???

Thanks for your feedbacks. Well i dont think i can make it to walk any faster than this at the moment. I have thought about another leg geometry. but i have to test it first.. About the battery box, yes it's heavy. But i don't own a LIPO battery box a the moment they are to damn expensive, unless one of you have a cheap one with a charger ? So for the next few days i will do some more experiments.

Finally ! Just uploaded a video of my Cyberbug Mark II. This is just a small test of it walking and turning. Sorry about the bad resolution in the video.

Yes thats true Horace. I have seen tons of videos on Youtube of different kind of walkers. But i don't think that the battery box is to heavy for my walker only speed. it's a little slow at the moment, but i can live with it so far. A video will be coming soon. when i have figured out to place the L motor in a better place.

Some more pictures of my progress. And a close up picture of the shifter that changes from forward/backwards walking and turning mode.

A very clever design.

Yes a video and more picture will follow soon, as to the battery box. Yes it's a weight problem, but the L motor almost don't notice it. I had to ditch all the complicated gears setup and go back to a more direct drive for the legs. Have also installed a drivers seat.

In this topic i would like to present my ideas and progress of my Cyberbug Mark II. Ideas and suggestions is welcome. Hope you like it.

Yup ! Look here. This is the first version, but to complicated. And this is a much simpler version i came up with.

Thats right Jim. Problem solved with a lot of help and guidance.

Nope ! still no luck. Have even tried out my Firefox, but all i got was a little icon with a broken picture in it and the same error message again when i tried to post it.

Didn't work either. Maybe it's one of my plugins that is doing it. Have already tried to google the problem, will see if i can come up with an answer.

Well it can be my safari that has something about those links it don't like ? chrome ? not a chance, my mac is to old for that i'm sorry.

yes. //www.mocpages.com/image_zoom.php?mocid=198235&id=/user_images/10175/1273491021m_DISPLAY.jpg

Well Jim i can try. Nope ! all i got is this when i press the add reply button. "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community" And i know it's a Jpg picture, i uploaded it myself on Mocpages. Even tried to copy the url from the url line and pasted it into the picture link url.

Wierd ! When ever i try that, all i get is a blue box width a question mark in it and the link you gave me Jim i could se some of the topics had the very same question mark ?!! Just to be clear, i use and old PPC Powermac width safari version 4.1.3

I know this is a little off topic. But do i use those html codes to put a picture up in here ?? Let's say from Mocpages ???

Hello Hrafn. Yes i will see if i can take some closeup pictures today. I have been offline for a few days (New girlfriend. ) so didn't had the time.

Finally ! I think i got it right width this little contraption. Hope you like it and if you come up width a better solution please be free to post it here.
