indymill motors or ddcs

I plan on building the indymill CNC and I'm not sure if I either want to go with nema 23 closed loop hybrid motors 2nm with mach 3 control board or go with standard nema 23 motors and use an offline controller like ddcs v3.1? I'm trying to budget so it's one or the other. Plan on cutting woods and some aluminum as a hobby.

 

Also I hope to use either a 1.5 kw or 2.2 kw g penny spindle with vfd. Not sure which one either.
