It looks like you are actually gearing up the speed from the motor to the wheels. Yikes. I don't know what kind of motors you are using, but if they are anything like FRC motors you need to gear them down. Way down.


Yes, we are using one motor per wheel. That picture was taken before we got all the motors on.

We geared the motors down yesterday (2:1).
