That looks really good! could use a little organization, but overall its pretty awesome! as far as the batteries go, on our teams t-shirt launcher we are working on, we have one battery for the electronics and one battery for all of the motors and compressors. This way when the motor battery goes dead we can swap it out without turning off all of the lights/sounds and electronics. We are also planning to have enough battery boxes on the robot for close to 4-5 batteries, this will allow us to quickly swap the connection if the battery goes dead.

Hopefully this will help you in your further designing of this robot!!
