I don't think this is permitted by rule <R49> "Each power-regulating device (speed controller or relay module) shall control one and only one electrical load (motor actuator or compressor)"

We are also trying to change the 2010 Game Robot Project to drive with four motors & we have changed to Tank Drive. We have replaced the"Drive - Open 2 Motors" to "Drive - Open 4 Motors", but the robot is only driving with the same two wheels it drove with using the "Drive- Open 2 motor".

Is there another step we need to complete because we have also changed to tank drive?

I've attached a copy of our Begin VI.

Can anyone advise?
