Comments.Text: Hi Joetest - I assume the powerpack you're referring to is [4506078: Batterybox 4X11X7](http://brickset.com/parts/4506078) - but I'm not sure which motor you mean - where did you get the part numbers from? In which case, it's probably a duplicate of [How to use Power Functions with Mindstorms EV3?](http://bricks.stackexchange.com/q/2325/56)
