Where do I begin? I seemed to have been called out on what some are calling a Hoax. Let me start by saying that I really do not appreciate being associated with such a fraudulent claim. I have absolutely no reason to make up any falsehoods. The 8653 (...) (20 years ago, 23-Dec-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) The RC buggy motors will work, but they run about 3 times the speed of the other motors, so you may want to gear them, anyway. As for mounting 9v motors, you can put Technic 1x2s on both sides of the top, next to the electric connection, and (...) (20 years ago, 22-Dec-04, to lugnet.technic)

| | Technic Motors in Studless Construction?
|
|
I have started playing with some of the studless sets (8441 and 8451 picked up on sale) and am trying to figure out how to connect motors to studless... Any ideas/diagrams of ways to connect studless construction/geartrains with the standard 9V (...) (20 years ago, 22-Dec-04, to lugnet.technic)
