The motor from a 3.5 in floppy disk drive. The coils, arranged radially, are made from copper wire coated with blue insulation. The rotor (upper right) has been removed and turned upside-down. The gray ring inside its cup is a permanent magnet. This particular motor is an outrunner, with the stator inside the rotor.
DC brushless ducted fan. The two coils on the printed circuit board interact with six round permanent magnets in the fan assembly.
