Problems with the chassis
Due to the original design of the buggy chassis the motors started to slow down and then stop completely. This is because of the weight that was on top of the motors causing the gears to stop rotating. The back of the chassis was under so much stress that some of the screws and plated started to bend. This caused the wheels to lean inwards rather than stand vertical and let the buggy move forward in a straight line.
Improvements
The new chassis has the motors on top and upside down so that they can work properly and operate at their maximum speed. The chassis is also lighter so that turning is easier and faster than before. Not only is the chassis lighter but it is also easier to extend the LDRs and LEDs to below the chassis.
