Hi,

I was wondering the differences between these three.

I see the Amp rating for the tiny is 1,5 A.
The Pro is 8-15A
The Simple is 1,5 A similar to the tiny

Why would one opt for the Simple over the Tiny?

I am trying to make a gimbal that would carry a Canon t3i as well as a T5i (about 500-700g).

I have been looking at these motors:

I am not sure which ones would be the best for my application, nor do I no how much power they would consume which makes me question whether the Tiny/Simple would provide enough current.


As well, I cannot use LiPo's for this project. Is there an alternative battery pack? I have looked into LiFePo4 batteries but they require balance plugs which I would not be able to charge from. Would NiCad or Nihm batteries work?
Any recommendations there?

The frame will either be CNC milled from aluminium, or a mix of carbon fiber rods and 3D Printed brackets in ASA Filament.

Any comments/answers to anything I have said would be greatly appreciated.

This is for a school project (reason being no LiPo/complicated batteries)

Thanks
