Foot

There is 4 different foot-configurations:

When holding the foot upright with the leg connection part towards yourself, then the connection can be pointing Left or Right, and the drive motor be mounted Left or Right.

Front left foot: Motor Right, connection Right Front right foot: Motor Left, connection Left Rear left foot: Motor Left, connection Right Rear right foot: Motor Right, connection Left

Knee

All knees are equal, but there is a lower and an upper 3D printed part.

Hip

All main hip blocks are equal, but the mounting part to the base frame is different (4 different versions).

Blocks

Tube blocks connect carbon fibre tubes with main parts of leg using 2 set of 2 tubes.

The upper part (hip to knee) are straight (46.8 cm between axles), each end of each set of tubes consist of 3 parts, secured with short Ø 4mm blank rods. The upper set near the hip is different. One of the other sets should be mounted with an IMU board.

The lower part connect 2 tubes between knee and foot (also 46.8 cm between axles), and 2 tubes connect knee and the spring-damper assembly. A link between the 2 lower and the 2 upper tubes ensures that all 4 tubes are parallel at all times. One of the (lower) blocks must be mounted with an IMU.
