So I'd need to get the end bell off - not sure if it's pressed on or screwed on (on T-28 motor it's actually screwed on), get the right gauge wire, rewind it with the same number of winds to be legal.... seems like a lot of work.

It's not often one crashes twice the same day, a feat I seemed to manage comfortably today. First I managed to bash into a 1" wide pylon pole - that wasn't too bad, just a matter of epoxy and a new cowl till I realized the motor shaft was also bent [that's also fixable]. Then I figured I don't get to the field all that often so I'd fly this little Alfa Mig-15. Well, on landing, sorta cross wind, slowed it down too much, wind got under the wing and my reactions weren't there to apply aileron and full throttle. The belly slop destroyed the nose and wing mount. Doesn't look repairable. Unfortunate, only 4 flights and an enjoyable machine to fly.
So then I'm at home and I figure I'll discharge all packs to 50%. Now I don't have a discharge system setup so I go and stick each pack into the 450 powered La-7. All seems normal until I see smoke coming from the motor. It seems perhaps the combination of a long run and poor motor ventilation caused the motor to overheat. Seems to be destroyed.
All in all a pretty expensive day from an aeromodelling point of view!
