Stanford Pupper: low-cost quadruped robot

Awesome project! I'd love to build one, except for sourcing the parts - esp. the carbon fibre (out-of-stock) bits! If your team sold it as a kit I'd be your first customer! Of course, you'd have to ship to Canada too.

Q. Was there a price point you had to aim for in the development (i.e. under $1K)? And, if you were to double the price, what improvements would you make (e.g. even better servos)?

We're actually working with some people who are interested in selling the kits as a side project. Stay tuned. With double the BOM cost, we'd use torque-controllable servos. We're testing out the DJI M2006 right now.
