John, If you have any trouble running the GM2 gear motors on the Sumo11 you may need to replace the .1uF cap at C1 on the expansion board (the one at the end...

I'd start by removing the L293 motor driver chip from the lower board and the 74HC237 servo driver from the upper board. These do not have to be installed for...
