when I say that i will be tough to make the chips and drills to run at the same speed . . . I do not mean at full power. However, as I understand these things, if you were to take a chip and a drill, gear them so their free RPM's are equal, and then increase the voltage from zero to twelve at the same rate, the different motors will have different rates of increasing . . . ness . . . . osity . . . . or something. I mean, that, while you can sync the motors at 12 volts, they won't nescessarily be synced when you are giving them half power. Does this make sense? So, our base will run a straight line at full speed, but will pull to one side at half power and stuff. This isn't that large a problem, but its something to think about.
