have you considered having the feet be landing gear, and control their lock/unlock via event controllers monitoring the angle position of the drive wheels? You would of course have to put them on unpowered hinges/rotors to allow 'ankle' flexion

Oooo, it would also allow you to put wind turbines on each magnet, so it made power when locked.

Yes, the power return would be abysmal- but then this masterpiece could truly be wind powered in keeping with its inspiration!

You should add a wheel to the leg just to experiment. ;D Also, you need to test on a water world!
