you said that it could be built for under 300 dollars and this may make some people sad as not everyone can afford to make a project worth 300 dollars and also if it fails then you've lost 300 dollars!!!!!!!!!

 I made one kinda the same, but i replaced the weels with gears, and use two bike chains as treads. then i welded on some small squares of sheet metal to the treads to give it more traction.
