Probsbly you should locate motors first. Once you have the specs on the
motors, you can then
select servo amps. Copley controls makes a good variety of amps. Do
you want DC brushless,
brush or AC servo motors?

What interface will you use? Servo-to-Go? Or would you be interested
in the Pico Systems
PPMC card set http://pico-systems.com/PPMC.html ? You will also need
encoders, if the
motor doesn't have those integrated.
