Re: one wheel drive

the best way to answer you question is to point out: you can only use the motors that are supplied in the kit of parts

and every team gets the same kit, the same motors

if you could use all of them, and tie them to your drivetrain so they share the load, then you will have the maximum possible drivetrain power (HP) on your bot

and if you use half the motors, you will have half the possible power...

so, yes. The more motors you have in your drive train, the more power available, no matter how many wheels your bot has.
