Retiming the motors ?

is it legal to retime motors included in the kit... I.E put different guage wire on the insides and stronger magnets etc... and put different winding schemes ? people do this ALOT for model airplanes so that the motor itself produces more torque instead of having a heavy gearbox (although some gearing is still req'd but not as much)

also anyone know about brushless motors? why can't we use those! those are AWESOME
