The sensors are totally seperate from the motor. Sensors aside, a BL motor is a BL motor. The only difference I can think of is that a sensored motor probably has shorter coils than a sensorless motor of the same length because of the extra room needed for the sensor section.

Basic rule of thumb is that a sensored ESC can only run sensored motors, but a sensorless ESC can run any three-phase motor (as long as the proper voltage and current ratings are observed).
