And if you were going to make walkers of some kind, you'd be much better off doing six-legged rather than two. Think about the size of the gyros necessary to keep a two-legger from falling over while it takes each step. Then look at any six-legged bug — during movement, three legs remain down while the other three move. That's a much more stable platform.
