    I am wanting to build a 3dof Pitch + Roll + Rear Traction /yaw
    DC geared motors I can source for about 50usd plus's freight

    voltage: 24v
    output power: 150w
    no-load speed: 60rpm
    rated torque: ≥12N.m

    For more data look at enclosed pictures

    So if they good anuff.
    Then what kinda design should I go for?
    And use 3 or 4 motors and how many to upgrade to 6dof
    Really would appreciate all input on what to choose for the rest of the components.

    You need to check the motor specs and calculate the expected load, desired performance for a given design.
