All of the gearbox assemblies have a CIM in them by default and it looks like I didn't change the configuration of the conveyor belt gearboxes to show the FP motors with AM planetarys. The robot has only 4 CIMs.

Yes, simple four-wheel drive with traction control of some variety or another thrown in the mix. It's nothing quite as fancy as your crab drive.

The drive train alone -- which is <50 lbs. with battery -- was able to navigate our small field with a trailer attached.

I think I might remember where that camefrom

Anyway to those who did massive redesigns you're ahead of when we sawzalled our frame last year to restart which would be roughly this Saturday.
We of course never did stop tweaking that robot until Atlanta because we can't leave well enough alone.
