Well, it was a long time coming, but here a video on driving the joints of our walking robots.

After installing Fred’s left Bicep, I asked him to record a video for me.
This went well until he went to point to the virtual white board on his right side.
Now he not talking to me 
So now I’m working on his right arm

Excellent info clearly explained!
This project will take a while to complete.
I’m trying to work through all the possible design considerations including the maths.
Last thing I want is for my Inmoov robot to fall over and break.
I’m working on the basis, if I can explain it to others, then I have a reasonable understanding myself.
Also, if I have made an error, someone may spot it and let me know before I find out the hard way
I agree with that philosophy, my father a physicist says ‘The best way to learn something is to teach it’! Regarding it falling over and breaking you could do what Boston dynamic does with a simple track on the ceiling and a safety cable, here is a video of one of their early prototypes: https://youtu.be/SD6Okylclb8
I can’t attach the track to the ceiling in my home (the wife would kill me
) but I did build a frame on casters that can help support the robot when I first start testing. 
Haha !
