One other question regarding this set.
Why the new type of motor? It is bigger than it needs to be, not any better as
far as I can tell than the standard type (just as noisy anyway), and no doubt
added to the cost of the set. It has two places that can take an axel, so
presumably it can drive two separate functions, but they are not controllable
independently, so what’s the big deal?
Any plausible explanations?
thanks,
Gyl
