Did anyone use all 4 CIM motors for the wheels

We're using just 2 CIMS for the drivetrain; the lack of friction led us to believe that more would just cause wheel slippage, and there's no need to engage in a pushing match.
1 CIM for collector
1 CIM for storage
1 Keyang for turret
1 Barbie for thrower

Still room for more ...

(Picture coming soon)

We're pretending our FP motor is from a Power Wheels F-150 truck, rather than a Barbiemobile.

Team 1836:
4 CIMs for the wheels
1 globe for the conveyor belt
1 globe for the shooter
Two fisher price for lifting balls vertically
Keyang or Denso (not sure yet) for a roller at the entrance of the bot
