    They look to be 24v wiper motors, if so they likely need ground isolation: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/wiper-motor-mandatory-ground-isolation.25/

    In terms of suitability they can work, but being relatively low power need plenty of inherent design leverage, such as a shoulder mount design, they are not really suited to compact designs.

    Have a play with SimCalc to get an idea of trade offs between design and physics: https://www.xsimulator.net/communit...e-linear-speed-and-forces-of-your-design.270/
