I think you'll find that they also do a great job of preventing your robot to turn. You may find that you need to go to 4wd to reduce your turning radius and to overcome some front end friction. Also, be sure to add some weight to your drive chassis. Doubling the weight will also double your difficulties.
Otherwise, the bot looks great. Can't wait to see how quickly you're progressing on everything else!

Thank you! its been lots of work! 7 am every morning for 2 hours, lunch every day and usually 3 hours after school.
Our manipulator is designed.
We have the parts to do a 4wd setup on order. Hopefully they will be in soon.
