I recently built mine and have been wondering about adding a motor too. I've thought of adding the motor unit found on the 8279/5121 but it looks as if it would mean removing the external steering wheel and column outside the cab and readjusting the (...)

(...) Or, you could go to your local Radio Shack and buy an AC to DC adapter with 9V output and a potentiometer for a lot less than the cost of a Lego train controller. :-) TJ -uh cuttin' and uh splicin' we go! (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) It works well. It's easy to assemble and requires only common parts. I think that it will stand up to very high torque applications, but I haven't tested it yet. The only drawback to this home-made differential is that it's big. It's a minimum (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

T.J, I see you've built that diff that was advertised here recently. (URL) does it compare with the standard diff? Steve (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Hey Greg, If your looking to connect to a speed controller, you can use a LEGO 9v train controller. Other than that, sure, you can cut and splice to your hearts content. Robert Powell SCLTC (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Sure, you can wire it up to anything you want to. But do so at your own risk. I've used an AC adaptor (12V, 1A output) with my 9V motors for quite a while now and they work fine. My only advice would be to cut your Lego wires a good length (...) (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

Is it at all possible to wire a regular Lego gear motor to outside electronics? It seems like it could be done by cutting one end off of a Lego wire and reattaching other wires so that the motor could be plugged into something like a speed (...) (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)
