That seems also the issue with the wheels of Hardwired. I'm going to look into that, as several other machines use the same tyre.
The wheels appeared to not quite have enough grip on the floor, but I think that might have been a clearance issue, they did slip on the shafts after some damage though, I have a feeling there's a locking screw gone loose on it somewhere, but I didn't have too close a look at the wheels...

I think the biggest problem with HardWired's wheels is purely that they spun so fast that there was no way they could get grip. I put it in he arena with Massacre's bar taped above the wheels and run it on low speed, with a lower charge on the battery and it seems to solve some of the problems. The biggest thing I found was wear though, mine wore out after only 2/3 fights, but that's most likely because of the fast spinning.

Hatchets problems appeared to stem from the baseplate issue and it beaching itself I think but I could be wrong!
