It looks like you're excited :-)

Are those AX-12A servos? If so, do you think the wire connections to the "toes" will interfere with the thigh bones the way they're currently mounted?

Which controller are you using?

Yes, are the AX-12 servos. For the connections we adopted a more longer wire as first solution for prevent possible collisions.

We are using the serial port of the raspberry pi and a external buffer ( for traffic control) like controler of everything.

I'm doing a good demostration as vídeo, as soon i'm shows.
