It looks like you just need a belly pan and it is good to go!
Specs please. Transmission used and ratio. Drive formula (if not standard Kiwi). Gyro? Weight? This looks like a well conceived design, I'm sure it you have learned a lot just by building it. |

We used the Andymark bane bot gearboxes for CIMs, 16:1 gear ratio. The frame with gearboxes and motors weighs 24 pound even. The mane frame is 1/8th wall 1 by 2 aluminum. We used 3/16 aluminum/steel rivets. Each side is 24.5 inches long.

We used 1/4 inch lexan with 4 10/32 screws on each side threaded directly to the frame rails. I am thinking that the side with the battery might be be quite strong enough but we will see after some demos. |

Does putting the battery on one side make the robot drive crooked? We had problems last year on mecanum with uneven wheel loading. I imagine it would be similar if not worse on a kiwi drive.

Also the only service we have driven it on is a concrete floor. I am not really sure how it will handle on carpet. |

As these wheels will have a higher CoF on carpet, I would expect better performance, including when strafing. |

Also since it looks like when that picture was taken the radio hadn't been fully mounted, you should try to move it away from that motor. Motors can cause electrostatic interference that messes with the WiFi signal. The further away your radio is from motors, large power wires, or spinning brushes (read static-y stuff) the better signal you'll get.
