Abstract
Aircraft electric motors are described. The electric motors include an annular rotor sleeve having an inner wall, a connecting wall, and an outer wall, wherein the inner wall, the connecting wall, and the outer wall define a U-shaped channel configured to receive a U-shaped magnet structure and a sleeve inner cavity defined radially inward from the inner wall, a hub connector extending radially inward from the inner wall into the sleeve inner cavity, a hub arranged in the sleeve inner cavity and fixedly connected to the hub connector, wherein the hub is configured to rotate with rotation of the rotor sleeve, and a U-shaped magnet structure arranged within the U-shaped channel of the rotor sleeve. At least one of the rotor sleeve, the hub connector, and the hub are formed from a composite material.
