That is a brush-less electric motor as far as I know and it is used on profesional RC aircrafts :D it has something like 12 poles. The motor is only that purple colored thing, the rest is a battery and controlers.

I also did with my friend some sort of car out of a ruined RC plane, it had 3 wheels and it was propelled by a brushless motor . and the servo-motors which was driving the flaps from the wings, we used them for brake and steering, it was an immense succes ! 8-)

Tandem has a longer wheelbase and thus greater stability when you go 50 mph. Also, he can use it to pick up chicks!
