We've gotta get a program that automatically asks these questions whenever a piece or CAD design is posted.

I'm really liking the design. What is best is the flexibility in design you have left by allowing the wheels and gearboxes to be swapped out. That means you could theoretically use this design from game to game while only changing the parts you need to. The fact you can change it to a Mecanum drive fairly easily alone is quite awesome.

Overall a sleek design.
