I’m sure we all agree that rotary is more efficient and less complicated than reciprocating.

Right. the attraction to the recprocating setup is the pulling of the core inside the coil seemns to be so attractive.

What about a setup using a C shaped core like peters motor but have it perpendicular to a rotor. with a small gap in the C core. seems like one could get more torque then because you can have a bigger diameter rotor. And you could have more than one C core around the perimiter of the rotor that way you get the greater efficiency of pulling the iron into a smaller space and have a longer leverage to the shaft at the same time. in addition you would get a real good flywheel effect. Also it would be easier to build. I'll draw up a diagram to illustrate it.
