...for all your de-forestation needs...



Actually, could be used in many practical situations besides that. The web site has some more pics and videos...the future's coming...

    That's VERY cool! But if I was out in the wood alone and saw that coming down the hill, it would scare the shit out of me until I figured out what it was.







    I'd half expect some Imperial Stormtroopers to come piling out of it, blasting away.



    It could definitely go to some places where wheel-based vehicles couldn't, that's for sure.

    Wow! cool looking machine. But bad news for trees.

    Did anyone watch the video of it moving through the forest. Very fluid & complicated movement sequence for the feet. Does anyone know the name of this movement pattern?



    Forget atv's this is the next off road vehicle.

    The scorpion will probably get crushed by a large falling Pine! <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />
