Actually, the more limbs used, the less efficient it gets. The most
efficient system is using one leg. The cardio and circulatory system
can keep up with that at max effort. Adding a 2nd leg is less than
twice as efficient because the body can't fuel both to 100% capacity.
Add arms to the equation, and there's even less efficiency gain ....
25hz,
that might be true, but it's somewhat counterintuitive. Then again, HPV
helicopters and planes built by university labs, where every little
efficiency gain is essential, are all legs only driven, afaik. Anyway, do
you know of studies supporting your assessments?
