-brushless dc motors. google hobby city.
-aluminum tube or pipe about 1/4" thick woks well as a drum material, with some kind of tool steel for the teeth.
-No gearboxes, just pulleys & timing belts
-3000 RPM is very slow for a 15 lber. 8000 to 10000 is more typical.

I suggest you poke around the threads where other people have discussed existing drum robots/ robots in progress for some more detailed info.
