The only FRC-legal motors that are allowed are the ones provided in the Kit of Parts. Since in many circumstances, the motors inside cordless drills are very close to the size of a Fisher-Price motor, it probably wouldn't be too hard to take the DeWalt motor out and pop in a FP and then replace the casing on the transmission.
