    Stepper Motor Problems

    I was going to order my stepper motors from motion control products, i was going to order either three 3Nm motors or three 1.8Nm Motors. The Only problem is motion control products are out of stock and will be for WEEKS.

    So i was wondering what the equivelent from rs compents. I need them to be unipolar to work with my hobbycnc controller. i dont really want to spend more than £20 per motor, but i know if i can find one from rs i can go buy it in cash and have it straight away.

    I've looked on there website but dont understand the spec's. It took me long enough to work out oz-in and Nm, and rs show theres as mNm. ????

    Could some on please help me out, as i'm really stuck here.

    Thanks guys.
    I cant wait to see this up and running!!!
