    Yes I saw it but I don't really understand.
    I understand Tha I need:
    Inverter
    Encoder
    Power supply
    Arduino
    But I didn't understand which one buy, how connect them and how I have to program Arduino.
    If you now some one that has a build like what I wanna do I can just copy them

    When members present projects here they are not step by step howto's, particularly when breaking new DIY ground, but rather the evolution of individual and collective member experimentation and experience.

    Have you reviewed the full thread? I suggest in particular you spend some time studying and consider @Benu's and @danove_b insights and advice.
