An asymmetric brushless direct current (DC) motor (100) having a stator (104) having a plurality of magnets (108) and a rotor (202) having a plurality of armatures (204) where the vector sum of magnetic forces between each armature (204) and each respective magnet (208) is zero at every angular rotation position of the rotor (202) with respect to the stator (104) in the motor's (100) non-energized state.
