That's something I've noticed on here in the past.
When people are more open and detailed about what they are doing, they
tend to get accurate and useful help.

FWIW, you can sometimes find motors with optical encoders attached,
and it might work out well to use the motor as "a really big solid
mount"
A few minutes on the bench to sort out which lead is which, and you're there.
