Hello!

I am working on a TVC rocket and am looking to add a reaction wheel to control roll. I plan on using an Adafruit DRV8871 and a 300mah 11.1V lipo to power the motor and avionics. I am looking for suggestions on what motor to use, ideally something relatively small and light. I was thinking of using this.

What do you guys think?
Thanks for your help
 
Seems pretty expensive for basically a garden variety Mabuchi-type motor. Try All Electronics... they have a ton of them, cheap.
