Oh well this is starting to look better suited for a private robot. Just another idea I had been throwing around. Oh Mr. Skierkiewicz could I possibly power the capacitors seperately and then apply power to motors? Maybe with a second connection and a switch to apply a physical connection (A switch would also allow my to disengage the capacitors from the motor if needed)?
