A motor comprising: (a) a stator having a plurality of ferrous cores surrounded by a plurality of windings; (b) a pair of rotors positioned on opposing sides of the stator, each rotor including a ring gear; and (c) a drive shaft extending through a cutout of the stator, the drive shaft having a pinion gear positioned near an end of the drive shaft in communication with the ring gears of the rotors; wherein the rotors rotate in opposing directions so that the ring gears translate a movement of the rotors to the drive shaft through the pinion gear to rotate the drive shaft in a direction substantially orthogonal to a direction of rotation of the rotors.
