K'nex motors

[choluby]

I was watching some k'nex flat rides on youtube and I noticed that most of the models, especially the rocking ships have motors that are not k'nex motors.

I love making k'nex models but I don't know how to get my hands on one of these motors.

Any ideas?

You want these two (the best ones)
-K'NEX Battery Motor Red long lead
-K'NEX Battery Motor 2-speed

This is a really good website for knex parts and pieces....

Happy to help! :--D

You could take a cordless drill motor and attach it to a K'nex rod if you really need some power for a launch or something.

I'm talking about flatrides but that would work for a graviton.

If you want to be really sophisticated though, you can get robots and control accessories to program your k'nex flat rides to do all sorts of stuff! :--D

Bit expensive though...


Don't underestimate drill launches...
