Usually the treads just don't find purchase, but I was up til 2am last night
experimenting, and think I have figured out that by adding weight to the front
of the chassis and suspension on the road wheels I am improving this a lot.
A motor has stopped a few times too, and I've gotten it working again by turning
it on and off, but I'm guessing this isn't very good for the motor. Is this a
common problem with Technic motors and are there any useful precautions to take
so as not to ear them out very quickly?
thanks
Magnus
