Yhe steering mechanism is very strong, and i am sure it can handle twice the
actual weight. But i'am not sure about the traction mechanism, because it
have a lot of friction on the axles and more gear mesh than i would like.

But this is only the first version, and i will make some improvements soon:

-    reduce the height of the whole robot
-    better traction mechanism
-    move faster
