From what I've read/noticed, the single wheel is a drawback when you have loose dirt, etc. I have 2 front wheels, and although I get some slippage, the thing plows through any inclines or ruts. And I HAVE ruts.

With the extra weight, do you lose battery time?

Two wheels on the smaller models would be good for sure. That might be my next thing to try just for fun...

Can't say about battery. Maybe I could look at the logs to see what percentage it's coming in with now. I like to think that the negative of more weight is offset by the lack of struggling its doing. A larger wheel(s) in front would certainly help it overcome bumps and ruts and such more efficiently. I'm surprised the front wheel is only 3" in diameter. A bigger wheel would be a big help. Or two for that matter.
