| I'm new to the process of motorizing anything and don't have any of these
types of parts so I'm looking for some incite. With the new Loop Coaster
, there is the opportunity to motorize the lift mechanism so that
it can run continuously. Per the set recommendations, they suggest to use
and . Would it also be possible to use the older parts
and ? I don't know if these are powerful enough or not.

| Hi,
I read somewhere that the "old" Power Functions system would be a great alternative
for this set. It must be enough powerful.
Like you, I don't want to buy a new motor and a new Battery box, so I will
do with the lots of Power Functions parts I have in stock !
