In '99 we used a 4-wheel drive system that included
both the window motors and the van door motors. We connected the motors directly to the wheels, but there was quite a bit a machining that we did to make that system quite robust. Our robot was definitely one of the better teams at pushing that year and we never had any problems with either motors.

: I was just wondering what experience teams had using the Van door motors to drive their robot. I have heard that they are unreliable. Just wondering. Thanks
