New permanent magnet motor on youtube from Roobert33

[Staffman]

I've given the 4 stator idea some though. Each stator should be able to be lifted by the 'cam'. If the rotor was laid out horizontally, instead of vertically, springs could push the stators back in. This way, three are pulling at all times, while the cam lifts one of the stators.

Below is a pic showing what i'm talking about. I am artistically challenged, so no remarks about the quality of the pic. 

As this design calls for a horizontal setup, this is the top view.
The red things are the springs, the grey dots are the magnets, the blue thing is the cam, the large circle is the rotor. V track and magnet supports not shown.

@ Staffman . Great idea but why stop at four?

[LightRider]

Yeah, maybe. However, can you demonstrate with your own experiment how that powering by an external source can really happen? I wish @LightRider would post here his analysis of the timing and explain it more thoroughly.

    I saw this remark at Youtube backup video of Roobert33's motor.
    It sounds very likely.

    "Look at 2:29 just when his hand approaches to stop the rotor.
    It's clearly visible that the rotor slows down well before his hand touches it.
    In my book this means he switched off an external power source a bit to early,
    perhaps hidden below the table, and the rotor slows down before he can reach it."

@Omnibus: explanation of the analysis coming and special attention will be given at 2:29.

How does this show on your graph? I don't quite understand what you've done there.

Another video showing how small a movement you actually need.
