I'm assuming you will be gearing these down, because even though your stepper controller will allow you speed control, having the option of 3000 rpm doesn't seem that practical. So you you be better served trading speed for torque. In that case, these motors should be suitable. -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
