The first thing I see is you are using a 4 motor "Drive" for an arm. This begs the question, "Why?".
Are you using 4 motors to power the arm?
Is each one doing something different?

You might want to consider using a single motor class and "Y" cable(s) to have multiple motors doing the same thing.

See above, they beat me to it.
