Hey Jaime, I got a lot better at winding motors, I can rewind the arm to have less/more winds, your choice, 30AWG would be best, with around 25 turns, for what you want, this armature might fry the V2(if you get one, or you could go hobby-grade, PM me for links).

Plus, I could re-build it, lube the motor, and drop in a vented can with a way better endbell.
Free of charge, PM me if you want.
