hello, we have a project to install a electric motor in a real ultralight aircraft, probably a single seat.
I am searching motors, but i can see it is difficult to found upper to 10Kw brushless motors. in fact i have only found "YUNEEC" motors
I am thinking than it could be funny to build a big direct drive brushless motor, If my customer are agree, I really prefer to design and build a custom motor than expend money in yuneec motor.
i have experience in solidworks 3d drawings, CNC lathe and milling parts, laser cut and there are some re-winding workshops near here, it seems easy to build.
About motor design:
Probably the state of the art are axial flux halbach - litz wire motors, but it could be a risk, brushless outrunner are easy to build, reasonable efficiency and it seems to be reliable design
Target:
22kW 2500rpm (based in piston motor and gear box)
120V/250A?
Controller
15kW - 30kW

What do you think?, is it possible?
Someone with permanent magnet motor design experience interested in help me?
