No that is as fast as it can go. I had to sacrifice speed for torque. I needed the torque to move the weight. There are three fairly heavy 24 volt gear motors in each leg and an 18 volt Makita drill battery to power it. Thanks for your comments.
A Hexapod is a creature with 6 legs. Guys like me who like to build Robots as a hobby , build hexapods because they don't require a sense of balance. They usually walk by moving three legs at a time, two on one side and one on other, this lets them stand on the other three like a camera tripod, no dynamic balance required. Far simpler and cheaper to make.Thanks for your comments.
Very nice! Does it move any faster?

Where do you buy it?
It is not a kit that you can buy and put together. It was a project that took me several years of design and build. Thanks for checking it out
That’s really cool! Terrifying, but cool!
