FAQ
Air, Pro or EDU?
For RL and locomotion research the EDU tier is the product — it unlocks low-level joint control and high-compute options. Air/Pro are demo and education machines. 'Go2' spans $1,600 to $10k+; put the exact tier on the PI.
Why did labs worldwide standardize on Go2?
Price and published baselines: most locomotion-learning papers run on Go2 fleets, so new work inherits working configs, URDFs and controllers on day one.
