Rocket terminology pedantic:

Motors don't have controls beyond start/light and separate. The thrust
is controlled by the cross-section of the burn surface only. A rocket
motor thrust profile is controlled by the mould used.
Motors are like the old Estes rockets or road flares we all had as kids.

Perhaps you mean controlling rocket engines? Rocket engines have throttles,
rocket motors do not. Engines are liquid fueled, need pumps, turbos,
valves, a combustion chamber.

Both motors and engines have nozzles.
