That is awesome. Could you put a vid of it in action. I love the style - it is functional, but equally stylish - the way you have arranged the cabling makes it look really something.

(...) You'll probably find your batteries are about 1.2V so with six batteries you get 7.2V. Marketing and advertising states they are 9V motors so you should be able to take any lego motor (that has 6 batteries) upto 9V and get an additional 25% (...) (19 years ago, 1-May-05, to lugnet.technic)
