I don't think the design itself is weak, simply that the current version posted would be up for quite a task. I have no clue as to speed, but I would be concerned with the gearboxes (we have found planetariums to be a tad fragile) in a pushing match. An open frame with little structure to tie the front end together would have me concerned as well for impact, but I think with the scale of your frame rigidity shouldn't be much of an issue. Again, these are simply in the prototype you have proposed. I haven't a clue what this could delvelop into when built for FRC. I am excited to see what it could become, as a modular approach is something we have been contemplating for our entire history in FRC.
Beyond that, it's a tiny little thing! Sure does make the battery look massive! (I know it is a prototype!)
