How are your controls working? You control each motor with one IR channel,

planning to build one, there is a warning: the way the wheels are put together
may cause some damage to the 8L axles (18 of them), as there is a moderate
bending force on them. (I haven’t taken any of them out so I can’t tell for

sacrifice!
I’ve also added another video which should make it clearer how the controls
work: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/aeh/Killough/video/controls.avi
Many thanks for the encouragement! Alexander
