No, I imagine my final setup will be 3 custom ordered PCBs with many custom motor controllers (I got the CM4 specifically for this). I got into CAD to throw together a joint, but realized I have to do a lot of info gathering before I can even start.

Uh, this thing?

Best of luck to you I suppose.

When designing my PCBs, I will make sure I take into account burning out my motors, as well as reading feedback, so that I can gauge how much pressure is being put on my motors and feed that back to my CPU. That's much appreciated.

Also remember that without an absolute positioning on the motor, you're going to need to be dead reckoning the exact position. With slippage especially you're going to just drift what your micro thinks the position is, and what's physically there. Little errors that build up over time until your saftey measures take over.
That's the reason why people use steppe motors, going with what people have already used lets you grow from them. You'll basically have to reinvent the wheel.
