Ahhh? Battery power, motor life and controlability. During a pushing match, having a slow robot that has motors spinning fast can push forever. As you know, DC motors love spinning fast. The CCT allows the motors to spin fast while attaining a very high output tourqe.

Dual motor drives, in general, suck more battery power; although I do not think that is really a big issue.
