Re: Looking for a good servo Motorola motor witha brake.

A list of the legal motors this year can be found in the game manual R18 to be specific. Make sure you go through the full manual before anything.
The window motors, door motors, windshield wiper motors and, seat motors all have a worm gear drive attached but the torque they output may not be sufficient.
There is nothing stopping you from adding your own brake to your gearbox or mechanism. Depending on your design you may also want to consider adding counter weights to your mechanism so your motors only have to do a small amount of lifting.
