RI5 crocodile robot

[msx80]

Hi there, here's my first creation with the latest mindstorm, it's some kind of crocodile (or komodo dragon?) robot. It works by twisting in the middle to shift weight to the right feet before turning the central "legs". The smart brick is towed and resting on a single wheel. Initially i placed it on the body but i was warried that too much weight could stress the motors.. but it kind of looks nicer there at the end. The tail is simply dangling.

Here's a video of it in action:

Really interesting walking mechanism! I've never seen anything like it before.
