Sounds good. I use a CyberMaster for the movement part of the robot because it
has tachos on each internal motor. I modify the power settings for the motors
to keep the robot (reasonably) straight, rather than stop and start them. If
you tried that what sort of results did you get?
For the CyberMaster I get good results for drives of about 20cm+ - shorter
drives tend not to balance out.
Of course, getting the wheels on each side to travel the same distance doesn't
mean you've gone straight :-)
