Radial flux motors also work great. Whether one or the other is better depends on your application. 1) I don't consider this a breakthrough. 2) Magnax's motors

Radial flux motors also work great. Whether one or the other is better depends on your application.
1) I don't consider this a breakthrough.
2) Magnax's motors are a really sensible design (like Emrax's) and I think they'll do very well.
Radial flux motors can achieve just as high of specific power and are already pretty cheap and available. I think it has taken a while for BLDC motors to become cheaply available at high specific powers except for R/C applications, and there wasn't really any fundamental reason why, but it's better late than never.
(I make high performance electric motors, including both radial and axial flux ones)
