Another cool bot from Keith, the same fine British fellow who made that great "Tai Chi" humanoid from 9g servos last month. More at

Neat. I can't figure out if the legs are two or three axis.

He mentions a steering servo. I think the legs have 2 servos each and there's a fifth servo steering the leg assembly relative to the trailing cart.

Look at :10 and 1:07. The left leg tilts to turn. Maybe the right has a third degree of freedom as well but it doesn't seem to be used in the video.

Good call, Rich. I think you've solved the mystery.
