My backyard bot kept drifting until I checked the sensor mounts
I built a small robot for garden patrol, but it would always drift to the left after a few minutes. I finally saw the left wheel encoder was loose, and tightening the screw on the mount fixed the steering completely. How do you secure delicate parts on projects that move around a lot?

Isn't it annoying when a tiny loose part ruins everything? @david_reed22's hot glue trick is smart for brackets. I just make sure to really snug down any screws on moving bits.
