Hi there,  
I’ve been following your youtube guide on programming the Unitree Go1 with python.  
I can’t seem to understand in what way I can edit the python scripts or add my own to the zipped folder.  
I’ve tried to unzip it or edit the file with 7zip but I’m getting errors.

I would appreciate any help, thanks a lot!

How are you trying to run the code? In Docker or WSL?

WSL, like shown in the youtube video 🙂

Not sure which video you’re referring to as I’ve done many on both WSL and Docker. Right now our preferred approach is Docker since it’s more widely used and can run on Mac. At any rate, hopefully this will help you gain access to the files on your system:

Let me know if you continue to run into issues and I’ll be glad to assist.
