can a motor be added to sets that do not come with one?

if there is a motor available that fits, then yes, but where does the power supply to that motor go?

You can manually put motor into v2 instead of v3. That is another weakness of this set up, but one wich does not affect me that's why I didn't mention it in my review.

You cant buy a set that I know of. I replaced mine but getting a kit at Walmart and Academy Sports. I did them myself, it isn't hard.

I am not sure, as I have had it for a couple of years now. However I seem to recall that there is not a kit, and extra weights cannot be added.

Hey NYRed, I honestly don't know as I've never tried. It is a very cool toy all on it's own though. I think there is a peice that can be connected to something else once you don't add one peice of the set on. Hopefully that helps.

I don't believe the motor will run without the proper assembly of parts. There's a fail-safe switch that's closed when the plastic lid is engaged.

Yes you may; however, keep in mind these motors include a starter winding which may be defective.

Yes you can as far as I know. It would have to be another lego power train. We bought extra track sets. Just check model numbers for compatibility.

No the set comes with them but you can always sell them on eBay if you prefer not to keep them :)

To the best of my knowledge there is no motor available. That being said, I would suggest looking at the manufacturer's site. I know that with a heavy load raising the platform is very good exercise!

I contacted GW directly...they indicated "No." I don't have any more details than that, but it may be that another extension might overwork the motor. Extensions cannot be ordered individually.

Some motors have blocks to lift them when you use the lift kits. If you didn't go to extreme with your lift kit it should fit just fine.

If you mean the large clear board then the upgrade kit does not come with one of those. But, if you mean one of the circuit that has a number on it like the motor or the lamp then it would limit you to do the circuit projects that didn't require a fan or motor. I guess I would need to know exactly what piece broke. Because there are quite a few clear pieces in the kit.

We don't have that kit. We bought these so our son could build what he wants. He is very creative and builds all sorts of vehicles. He loves it and he is now 8.

It includes the motor. Easy to install, I'd never worked on one, and it only took me ten minutes.

No I bought it separately. (It was still cheaper than many other sets). Go on manufacturers website there are a few that will fit & amazon carries them! :-)

This does not come with motors, only the triggers to switch the locks. If you car was not fitted with them, they must be fitted also before this can be used.
