I think the OP is looking to use a propulsion motor for a spindle drive.
The hobby industry is presently experiencing rapid growth in brushless DC
motors and controlers.
Basically they are a VFD and 3phase motor. DC input 7.2 to ??? volts input
and require a 15 - 20 MS repeating 1 - 2 MS positive pulse from the radio
system throttle channel.
No reason they would not make a good spindle drive motor for a small
drilling or milling system as in PCB work.
As far as using the motor and speed controller for positioning I think not.
No feedback capability and way to course control.
