Okay, guys, I've got a question about the various Technic motors.

I just built a big Land Rover and I'm powering it with a motor I got from a
Znap set last year.  It's not very powerful... very slow, since the vehicle • is
so heavy.  I also have the 8480 Space Shuttle with its two motors.
Would I be better off getting another motor like the one from the Space
Shuttle?  Which is most powerful?  And it seems to me it wouldn't matter if I
use the single 9V battery box or the 6xAA battery box to power it, is that
correct?  I think the only difference there is that the 6xAA would last • longer.
Well, thanks for any help.  Later.

Seth.

There is a good comparison at:

You can also try this link:

Click on 'Technical specs' and then on 'Motor'.

Another comparison can be found here:

I couldn't fit it in one line so some copy&paste are in order.
(I don't think this table is accurate, though, 60 rpm is much too slow for the
new geared motor)
