Hi everyone,
I have stumbled upon a number or broken hoverboards and can salvage their motors (500W 36V, "inside the wheel " permanent magnet servo)

Do you think it will be possible to control and use them for CNC? They do have aluminium plates on both sides which should make it possible to attach them.
They can handle a standing person with ease.

What other things would you suggest i use them for?
Do you have any simple and cheap way i could get these under control? (arduino, drivers or such) I am a complete noob.
Thanks.
