Aircraft electric motors are described. The electric motors include a substantially annular shaped motor housing having an outer wall and an inner wall, wherein a rotor-stator cavity is defined between the outer wall and the inner wall and a gear assembly cavity is defined radially inward from the inner wall and a gear assembly arranged within the gear assembly cavity. The gear assembly includes a sun gear operably connected to a first shaft, at least one planetary gear arranged radially outward from the sun gear and rotationally engaged with the sun gear, and a ring gear arranged radially outward from the at least one planetary gear and rotationally engaged with the at least one planetary gear, wherein the ring gear is operably connected to a second shaft.
