We lack getting chain around the last wheel set so it doesn't drive as of yet
We have them mounted in the corners at an angle such that the wheels are aligned along the diagonal.
We have conceeded losing in a pushing match but hope that the system is more manuverable and can drive our way around such situations. We felt that being able to turn on a dime and swerve while chasing balls was more important that holding postion in this years game.
It is a worry though when one is lined up for a shot and gets a push. If weight was not a concern then we could deploy some pnuematic actuated locking feet...
I'll post a link to some video of it driving once it is complete.
