Is the aim of the project to ultimately make the printed robot to run and walk?

Maybe the next step will involve fitting servo motors on to the robot?

IIUC, SpotMicro seems to be a project that already has this part sorted out: https://youtube.com/results?search_query=spotmicro

I don't see any of those videos actually demonstrating Spot Mini walking successfully. Some comments suggest that the motors are not strong enough, or the body is too heavy.
