A control system of a robotic device may receive sensor data indicating at least one deviation from a nominal operating parameter of the robotic device, where the robotic device includes articulable legs that include respective actuators, and where one or more strokes of the actuators cause the articulable legs to articulate. Based on the received sensor data, the control system may determine that the at least one deviation exceeds a pre-determined threshold. In response to determining that the at least one deviation exceeds the pre-determined threshold, the control system may provide instructions for centering the one or more strokes at approximately a mid-point of extension of the actuators, and reducing a stroke length of the one or more strokes of the actuators.
