The V2 will not perform like the woowee video. It falls down all the time in any gait mode. The designers of the V2 should be fired. It was NEVER beta tested in the production mode. If it was, where are the results? Everyone made money at the expense of little children. Thank you WooWee, the Sharper Image, and the great manufacturers of China.
I have read many posts and refuse to try to refit to get it to do what is was intended to do. I am not an engineer and, I guess, neither are the people at WooWee. Corporate World has won - they got our money!
however..... mine falls over on carpet all the time. still an easy way to make it not fall over so much is just run the batery for 30 min. this slows it down enough so it dosnt fall over. i just put new bateryes in mine and it fell over a ton. but i thought i was screwed when it was going so slow with the old batereys so i am glad it is fast not to mention the one in the video was on full batereys so it woudl be much much better
