The motor burnt out on my bugs5w,,,it’s a 1500 kv motor,,'I do have a 1800kv motor from my bug3. It’s a 1800 kv motor..do you think that would work in the 5w,,if so will it affect anything? Thanks

It will add 300RPM per volt applied 
I haven't heard of anyone trying to mix different motor kvs but I can't imagine it's optimal. The PID loop and fly by wire can deal with different props and/or varying thrust from each motor it just gives more power to the side that is sinking in a simplified view, but having motors that have vastly different kv means they will have a large range of thrust they can produce.... if you try and it works let us know.

It’s kind of what I figured,wasn’t sure,,I think I’ll just order the motors,,it’s seems everyone is out of stock,at the places I look,,do you know anyplace that definitely has them?
