....I think this might work. The servo control as shown is in use on two Pop-Up pistol targets.
The 2k pots can be any low value, 5k-10k.With U1-3 low, adjust R5 for servo in magnets down.
With pin 3 high, adjust R4 for magnets up. No 4001, then we'll make diode NOR if you have a NPN
transistor.View attachment 119047

I like your suggestion ... Thank you.
It's in the right direction and gives me a better insight.
I'll chase parts and try this next week or so after my relatives leave.
