    If I were going to construct my own, I would for sure use a brushless DC motor because they can be accurately controlled from 1 RPM to the maximum. So, shortly, I envisage a horde of cosmetic chemists raiding electric car scrapyards for wheel motors and DC control blocks.

    also how is it on controls RPM speed? via voltage?

    just found out that you need a VFD to change the speed of a motor..

     you shouldn’t change the speed on a brushless motor, its not made for it! what are you getting people into
