I'm a bit curious about the tests you performed that led to this conclusion. Were the weights of the "single wheel" and "dual wheel" robots the same (ie did you account for the weight of the extra wheels?). Were all wheels powered in both configurations? Was the arrangement of wheels the same? Were the wheels checked for any surface changes in between the two configurations?
