Maybe you could integrate a detachable handle and wheels so it can be rolled like a suitcase?
Looks like it's already got a handle, so I dunno how much of a hassle it would be to carry. Given that it's only a drive base, and I'm guessing it travels sans-battery, it'd only weight 20-30lbs. Somewhat carryable, but probably hurts to carry by just that aluminum tubing!
