The short answer is yes.

The motors are not equal.  You'll see designs using just one motor for the
drive train for this reason.

I'm in the process of toying with two rotation/angle sensors, one on each
motor to see if I can programmatically synch the two motors.

Any answers would be helpful.  Thanks in advance.

(...) Why not just sync the two motors with a the differential provided in the kit? Or do you want the motors in sync but driving separate axles? thanks, alex (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
