gliding wheels....

right, i am wondering how you make something that allows the robot to freewheel.....
if you have ridden a bicycle, then its like that.... ie when you are up to speed the wheels continue without having to put any more power in (so you can get some speed up then glide along)...
the reason is that i'm worried about our motors and speed controllers....
currently we think the reason the speed controllers keep blowing up is because we push the robot around by hand sometimes and its putting currents through in the wrong direction... and by doing this we could push the robot along without generating power ... (if we could work out how...)
