I have had some success with different leg designs. I still have to use
stops for the rear legs, cause there is a small bug in my circuit. I need
to do some good tuning. The front legs are designed is such a way that
they stay centered. The rear use to also, but I broke the frame before I
could get the right bends and angles. Then I changed the whole thing and
am back at trying to get both without stops. I can get a picture of it if
you want to see it. It is ugly still, but it is a prototype.......aren't
they all..?
