So, this looks interesting. https://spectrum.ieee.org/axial-flux
Why not replace BLDC on a e-skateboard with these ? Seems that they would be more reliable, but maybe the diameter required is too large ?

i am looking into it. seems like they would perfect and crazy powerful. would probaly only require a single center mounted motor as well! Just need to find the right company/size and a single shaft extending out to each wheel…or make them hub motors. Id say it would revolutionize the industry.
Would inrunner motors with a big gear ratio get most of the efficiency there is to get while being able to reach high power?
