reaction wheel motor driver

Hi, just a couple of quick questions...

Does anyone know whether a BLDC motor would be suitable to drive a reaction wheel? (I'm up-scaling a prototype that uses a brushed dc motor)

I'm thinking about one of those launchpad bldc evm kits, are these suitable for really keen hobbyists? I'm experienced software developer and have an engineering degree but know very little about programming a motor driver other than what you do in a RC car.
