X-2 climbing up and down 5 inch steps. These steps are almost 1/4 of its height. X was never designed to climb anything this tall. This was to prove what it could climb if pushed too.

X-2.5 Taking side steps. Walking side ways was something that my old X-2.1 could never do. The leaning function makes X-2.5 a step above its older version or is it a step side ways? Another Lego first, for a Lego Biped to walk side ways.

Updated programming to make faster walking gate, almost 50%faster. Made a few design changes to the feet to add 4 sensors. But i made the feet narrower and this has caused a issue with weight shifting had to be slowed alot so need redesign them again and perhaps I can get the the steps to 5 seconds each. Work in progress.

X-2 walking with a chicken gate.
Mechanical changes: Planitary gears changed from 5:1 to 2:1.
outer gear reduction changed from 3:1 to 5:1. This is to again make a bit faster.

X2 tries 5 inch steps. Seems Murphy's Law "?If there is a worse time for something to go wrong, it will happen then". Once again Lego products seem almost indestructible, nothing broke. Though it did climb the 5inch steps i thought some may like to see what happens when, X-2 "has a bad day"......

Changes in this build, upgraded to NXT motors, moved the NXT bricks higher to add in CG for climbing higher steps 4+ inches. Retesting balancing points for future programming in an autonomous state.

Prototype Roadster Inline 4 pneumatic. With power Function steering and battery box.
Few things noticed after this was the steering is much to fast needs to be 3x slower is 9;1 maybe 24:1 will work better.
The rims are slipping on the tires rear. Need to crazy glue them for faster take offs.

Testing how well a pneumtic V8motor could power a small roadster. Since it must have a outside air supply somewhat will limit its use to a noviltiy. I can go faster but the Lego univerial joint wil snap under the torque
