            Abstract : 
The paper describes control peculiarities of the climbing robot that has a possibility to move across rough surfaces at any angle. A combination of the robot control algorithms and design parameters allows adapting to unevenness of motion surface. Control system ensures a sealing mode of pedipulator motion. Technical parameters of the robot and experimental results are presented.
