I did something similar with a HiTec servo for a robotics project (also for a robot). It seemed to work very well. I notice you’re using a micro servo. Will these same methods work for other servos as well?

The first time I saw this was in the late 90′s for the original ChiaBot minibots (http://battlebots.wikia.com/wiki/Chiabot). They each had two modified servos and two wheels. A standard RC controller drove them around with tank-style steering. It’s a great hack!
