VEX ?

Need some help with our VEX bot. We have had a few veterans look at this bot, and we are all puzzled.

When we try to drive the bot, it only works for a few seconds, and then it slows down until it isn't moving at all. Although, once we wait a few seconds without holding any of the controls, it works fine.

We have tried some troubleshooting; replaced the batteries(possible that they may be going bad) we tried it tethered(still had the problem). We for sure have enough power (using normal vex motors, 2 motors per side. Only geared slightly for speed).

If anyone could help with this problem, it would be much appreciated.
