How does this relate to MIT's mini-cheetah(1)? A quick search didn't turn up any plans/code for the cheetah except some simulator software(2). Is this an open source 'work-alike' ?

2) https://github.com/mit-biomimetics/Cheetah-Software

edit: I don't think the cheetah plans are actually open source ?

The MIT cheetah plans (specifically, having access to things like their motors) are not open source.

Bummer. Thanks for clarifying that.
