What Motor Driver to Use

Projects General Guidance
1

Greetings, I am making a project for a break-in system of mini4wd motors using Arduino. My problem is I have been using ln298n as a motor driver for a while but its been having problems when trying the faster motors from Tamiya.

Looking at the spec sheets of the motors the problems seem to stem from it having a maximum current draw of 4 A and the ln298n having a maximum of only 2 A.

Are there any cheap motor driver recommendations you guys have for driving a motor on 1.5-5V and max of 4 A draw. Thanks!

Who doesn't love shopping for new gadgets? I like Dimension Engineering. Some of theirs are overkill for this but who knows? Maybe on the next build the needs grow
