No, definitely a servo motor. Permanent magnet brushless DC motor. (Or AC servo as they are sometimes called). Basically a 3-phase motor with magnets instead of a squirrel cage. Normally they have Hall sensors for position feedback, but not in this case, the Arduino is doing clever maths and function generation to determine the rotor position and apply the correct phase voltages.
What "off-the-shelf power driver" are you using?

It's an International Rectifier IRAMS10UP60:
If you make this into a URL (Youtube seem to block them) then you should find the datasheet:

Sweet! Isn't this a stepping motor though? Great job isolating the voltage!
