also consider you could maybe do without current feedback. It is mainly used to detect stall and prevent motor from burning out.
The controller also supports motor temperature sensor. so while not usually used, if you had this without current sensor, it would prevent burning the motor out but waste a lot of power at end of travel.
A better way would be to have end stops or rudder feedback which are usually both optional. Ideally both (endstops in case rudder feedback fails) then it should be fairly reliable without current measurement. There are other advantages to measuring current though.
