How do I make the coil and place it on the axle. What I've done is made a coil (wrapping it around a rectangular object) and just shoved the axle around the middle and connected it to the split ring commutator. Don't think I'm meant to do that anyway, and obviously it didn't spin, so any ideas?

1 - Have you placed your stator magnets around your coil setup?

2 - Check the bearings, does the coil spin easily? Is the rectangular object providing too much inertia for the coil?

3 - Upload a photo or be more descriptive so peeps have a better idea of what might be going on here.
