Slotless motors do not have the steel laminations in the stator coils so there is nowhere for the rotor magnet's poles to get caught on as it turns and so it rotates smoothly by hand.

Does that mean on a 4 pole the '4 poles' will align with the stator at once and the 2 pole will only align 1 at a time?
OR a slotted motor just has more magnetic pull when not in use?
