Driving 48v BLDC motor with Dagor #5

I'm just going to ask, see what happens...

I've been following these dagor boards for a while now, because I would like to see if I can use SimpleFoc to drive a lathe spindle for FluidNC (I'm a contributor there). I'm specifically wondering if I can get it to do threading - which is a hard task by itself. The fact that your boards use an esp32 might be a nice advantage.

Anyways, I'm aiming at motors like these, and have a 500W one at home to tinker with. They already have an integrated hall sensor, so I suppose it should be possible to use these. https://jkongmotor.en.made-in-china.com/product/iwvGOzhHAaVg/China-NEMA-34-86mm-BLDC-Motor-24V-500W-and-48V-1000W-for-The-Sliding-Door-Assembly.html

I know the Dagor boards use 24v, while these motors are 48v rated. DRV8305 goes to 45v max... So if that's replaced by a DRV8323 and the mosfets by bigger ones, would that do the trick? I was wondering if there are any plans down this road?
