Im trying to make an RC controlled oo-gauge breakdown crane where all the electronics, battery and at least 1 motor have to live in the same 40x35x35mm cab. I've done all the research I can alone, but do people think this would work? I need 3 motors driven, so finicky work getting 2 H drivers on there for a fat fingered solderer, but with a spare board or two I think I could manage

SEED Xiao-C3
DRV8833 (x2)
EEMB 3.7V 1800mAh 963450 Lipo
6mm Planetary motors (x3)

Points of note:
- Battery pads will be soldered to lipo and routed through DRV8833 HDrivers. Will the H drivers drain the battery when not in use (AKA Where would I put the power switch, surely I I break the ground/live it wont charge when 'powered off' or is that just the sacrifice Im making to make it this small)

- Planning to drive this off a phone to reduce price/building of a reciever, whats the best software to load of custom code on a iPhone/android (cross compatibility would be grand in case someone else wants to play with it)

- Is there just a premade package that just already does this, I tried buying a tiny RC digger that nearly had the three motor outputs, but two of the motors are driven together and seem, hardcoded into the board

Thank you for looking!

Either looking for deep country western style, or female vocals. I have no idea which will work best, and Im not that familiar with music theory or Music production as a whole, videos my speciality. Find the lyrics in spoiler below.

Hey there, Im a UK based hobbiest animator making Rimworld content, and I love animating along to music. Im making a music video to some lyrics that I wrote along an in game track, and would love a vocalist to sing along with the lyrics I've written and 70% animated already! My youtube makes pretty much no money, but Id pay a bounty of £50 for the time and talent (not anywhere enough, but its a hobby)
I have a version Ive sung along to for reference if needed, but I dont count myself a singer so Ill DM that over to anyone interested. Let me know your thoughts, first time doing something like this as a collaboration!

(LYRICS)

Naked, alone, I wake in fear
Created a zone to haul my gear
*With no food at all, I beat a turkey to death with my hands*
Stare down the fall, I claim these lands

A small wooden shack to shelter me
Wild women attacks, its a robbery
* She takes all my F*** meals then eats a corpse, who does that?*
As my wounds start to heal, we begin to chat

Pawns, freaks to friends
Tying up the ends
Trying to live
Till graves
And we gave
All we had to give

*I raided an abandoned building and a giant mech blasted my jaw off, Im speechless*

A raid on horizons, sirens calls
Security tightens, block the halls
*Thats his first trap, second, his fifth trap? Guys got spirit Ill gotta give it to him*
Haul him in off his back, we recruit them in

Stranger in the glade, chased by a deer
Highborn pleads aid, shaking with fear
*The guys a nerd, knock him down and chain him to a research desk*
Help cries unheard, hes our new guest

Pawns
freaks to friends
Tying up the ends
Trying to live
Till graves
And we gave
All we had to give

We walk
We fight
Through screams
We talk
All night
Of dreams
Grey rock
Firelight
Steel beams

wild winds they blow
Don't know where to go
Come tomorrow

*A droppod landed and spilled out 15 human hearts, I think someone's trying to freak me out*
*Thats free money *

Raid on frontiers, our people trapped
stranger appears, A man in black
* He puts down 5 men then shoots off a fellas love enhancer, I dont wanna be in the same room
Has all the answers, heals our wounds

A ship crashes in, cant leave her there
Hurt Yttakin, with matted hair
*Soon as shes healed shes taming an animal army, but it's all part of our new community
Throws a Party, relax socially

Our high crown its gleams, in royalty
Allign on the memes, Ideology
Androids will dream, technology
Darkness will scheme, Anomaly
United our team, our Odyssey

(END OF LYRICS)

(Writers note: most of it is sung, but anything marked ** is spoken word comic relief which I would quite like to add in myself, my vocal talents can probably stretch that far and makes me feel involved with both video and singing)

Thank you for reading, look forward to getting in touch! If you have any samples of previous work, would love to hear them over DM or link
