Re: Problem with KitBot: Motors move at different speeds

You can do some troubleshooting by only powering one of the motors on each side at a time. Remove the circuit breaker from the power going to the other one. See if one of the motors is turning slower with a given throttle command.

The advice to calibrate the speed controllers is good.
