Walker mechanism V.2

[LLamaman]

I decided to do a complete rebuild of my old walking mechanism I had made, Now that we have the grid, it turned out a lot better,
The old version couldn't support any weight, and was quite fragile, however this one can support around 1000 or so kilograms and still walk. It also can go much faster too, over 300 rpm with the overdrive motors,

It's a square made of four boxes hinged together, that is moved in the X and Y axis by two different bars that are attached to a motorized circle, pretty much.

Here's the new version

A to brake,
Left and right arrow keys to walk
Up and down for overdrive (is currently set at 72, but can go much faster)

WARNING! Warranty is void if you use normal and overdrive motors at the same time, or brake and use overdrive at the same time.

Here's the old version (for comparison)

I think it's different,
If it is similar to anything, it's completly by chance, I thought of the original mechanism in radioshack.
