    The eBay crab pot will ship international. If you really want that motor. Otherwise, you could do wheelchair motors which are more obtainable in your area perhaps.

    I don't follow your question. You need an Arduino Uno R3 to install the smc3 sketch on. You connect that Arduino to the computer that will run simtools. Your motor controllers and potentiometers will connect to the Arduino.

    There is a large section on Motor Drivers in the FAQ. From experience, I highly recommend you spend a few hours familiarizing yourself with the various FAQ's. There is a ton of information that will guide you through the learning curve.

    The monster motor shields are simply an alternative motor driver. Motor drivers (xsimulator.net)
