Hi Folks, hope all is well.
I am planning on building an Electric motor powered garden cart.
I am looking into choosing the right type of motor.
The motor needs to have the 2 minimum items.
I am unable to decide between a regular DC brushless motor versus a Servo motor versus a Stepper motor.
Reading online about them didn’t help since I didn’t get enough clear information regarding which motor that I need to choose.
Can you guys please give me your feedback? Can you please also give your experiences when choosing a certain motor for a certain job? What variables dictates which motor that you guys would choose?
When do you choose a DC brushless versus servo versus stepper?
Thank you
I am planning on building an Electric motor powered garden cart.

The motor needs to have the 2 minimum items.
- It needs to haul at least 30 pounds.
- It should be able to move exactly 12 inches (or a certain preset distance) and then stop immediately without going over to 12. 5 inches or more. ( It is okay if its speed was only 6 inches per second )
- The cart will eventually be automated; so I need a motor that can work well with Arduinos etc.
