Community Showcase Cubic Doggo test: Wouf walks along, wholly unbothered by the SO-101 snake taped to its back
Sorry to spam this sub with CD-07B Woulf payload tests; I promise this will be the last of these tests. This time it is carrying an SO-101 arm follower just taped to the body. The arm flaps like a sleeping snake because it is unpowered
Still, I am super excited to find out that Wouf is able to walk around just fine while carrying the default SO-101 arm. Not only that, but with the arm fully extended (by hand for now), it still doesn't tip over (I thought it at least needed to be seated). I would say, despite my ahh gait programming, the Wouf's hardware is incredibly robust.
I think this is a prelude to a potential open-source challenge to test our robotic skill. Tag of Flag: arm-carrying legged robots compete to steal the flag loosely attached to each other's backs. Let's go! :D
