Is there anything connecting the two chassis halfs besides the back cross piece and the front roller?

I think you need a nice 3/4" plywood bellypan or a nice strong cross member supporting the chassis forward of the middle of the robot -- or both. This robot would have terrible tortional stiffness without something else bracing across it.

Regards, Bryan
