Exclamation Better get spare motors ......

Too much traction can be a baaaaaddddd thing too depending on what drive system you've chosen.

Don't forget, stalled motors become high current toasters at full voltage.

-and-

Tank tread designs need some slip in order to turn.


I hate the smell of burning motors on competition morning .......


Better get a line on some spares!
