    Hi

    Some time ago i was researching about the best wiper motor for my starting motion sim project. Well, right now I give up of looking motors in my city, because there are kinda expensive, i dont have experience with them, and the sellers doesn't know this project to recommend if the motors that they are selling are ok for my project.

    So I don't have other option than buy the motors outside of Chile, like Ebay or Aliexpress. I have about $110 US dollars ($75000 CLP) to spend 2 motors including shipping, the other materials like the chair and the rig I can afford it in my country, and right now I have a PC power supply, an Arduino board and 2 Monster Moto Shield. If it's neccesary i can put more money, but for now this is all what i've got for now.

    I was looking in ebay and aliexpress for a '12v worm gear motor', and this is the only thing that i've found

    https://es.aliexpress.com/store/pro..._4&btsid=b5817858-0218-429f-b9df-2c23aaf0099d

    So, if someone could provide me a store or provider to buy motors, maybe a similar motor used in a sim rig, i dont know, the only thing is that Ineed the most accurate motor
