I thought each wheel was chain driven, that would explain the name at least. But Hydraulic power would make more sense because of the arms raising and lowering.

i wonder if the articulation is manually controlled, and to what extent? if not, it doesnt look like he'd have much downforce in alot of situations

i dunno, seems complicated.

edit: towards the end you see him controlling the legs with levers.

I found another vid of this beast. I have mixed feelings about it. Cool and innovative....but as someone already said, takes out the pucker factor.
