quation problem with Transmission vary bad fraction slepy

Their robot moves so fast that it changes colour due to the Dopler Effect. By rapidly alternating between driving away from the viewer (Redshift) and driving toward the viewer (Blueshift), they can make the viewer see it in their traditional purple colour. - philso [more]

Rule R45 allows the purchase of up to two additional 2-1/2" (small) CIMs for use on your robot.

To check out where the friction might be, try moving the wheels or treads without the gearbox or motors attached. If that is smooth, add the gearboxes (if you are using any) and try moving them again. If that is smooth, add the motors and try it again. That should help you figure out where the friction is coming from.

Good luck.
