Hi Fradel, werd.

The Record and Play unit is found in the heart of this set:

    4095 Record and Play
342 elements, 0 figures, US$50, 2003
LEGO > SYSTEM > Inventor


I purchased the set at the North West Brick Con in 2003. I gave the green parts to Brick Frenzy as a gift and kept the R&P component.

The unit can “remember” what you teach it. The unit has two built in motors, recording sensors technology, a record and a play back button. It also has an alternate play trigger on the back of the unit. Both the play and trigger buttons can accept an axle.

The idea being if you made a simple wheeled vehicle for example, then hit “record”, then rolled it around on the floor. When you hit play, the unit will remember the movements you just “taught” it.

I used both motors together linked by axles and gears. with a hand crank off set from the main gear train. The linked motors drive a cam that provide the flapping motion of the wings.

werd. insect cherubs.
