A high power rotary device includes a stator comprising a plurality of wire coils each surrounding a non-magnetizable core; a rotor with permanent magnets embedded therein, the rotor being disposed adjacent to the stator, the rotor being mounted on a rotatable drive shaft; a position sensor operably connected to the rotor; and a control circuit operably connected to the position sensor and the wire coils to activate the wire coils. In this motor the control circuit transfers electrical charge from a first coil to a second coil.
