Much appreciated. If you get chance would one of you (or someone) explain the "limited speed" bit, briefly, I incorrectly, assumed it was the driver that governed the speed.

So, based on the information you chaps have given, this
Driver Kit Two (Three axis)
would be a much better investment?
3Nm, 50v motors..

thanks for your help

In layman's terms (I'm a layman, and someone correct me if I go off the rails... ):

Voltage governs top speed
Current governs torque

The drivers limit your maximum voltage. You can run them at less than max voltage, but the motors won't achieve the same top speed. If you put too much voltage on the drivers, they will burn out.

The drivers in that kit are good (I have some). I couldn't find where the kit's power supply voltage is mentioned, but if it's only 36v its a shame. The drivers would be underpowered and motors slower than they could be. I run the same drivers at 47v, which is a bit too close to 50, but no problems so far.

It's good advice to wait on the electronics until you have something to bolt the motors too...
