Yea unitree is. But if you’re learning, unitree is just a shortcut.

There’s one with the ESP 32 that seems much easier to build tho

Yea I have the one made by Adham and Maurice which actually uses ROS. Got pretty far but still stuck on debugging serial communication with the Rpi and teensy controller.

Which ones are you looking it? There’s some spot micro variations too.

SpotMicro isn’t very… agile. But it’s like $15 per hobby actuator and relatively a good start for people who want to get into robotics.
I think once BDLC actuators get cheaper then there will be much more adoption in the space. BDLCs cost like 200-400 per each and these dogs have 12. SpotMicro and it’s variations can be anywhere from 500-1000 while a larger DIY BD size dog with more advanced sensors and jetson nano can cost $10,000+

He’s great at music and he’s absolutely batshit. The fact that the media is entertaining his ideas and publicizing them is only feeding his mental illness and going to ruin his life even further.
