Hello, sorry to be a pain I need some clarification on something before I attempt to re wire two LG smartdrive stators into 4x3C configuration.

I made a 1 minute video explaining my question , any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't tell.
Of the 2 wires coming off of "coil 1" that you marked, is one of them going to a common terminal at the lead marked "Z"?
Have you traced these leads and marked them on your stator?
No one believes the theory except the one who developed it. Everyone believes the experiment except the one who ran it.

get another magnet, and glide it over the magnet rotor, and count all the attractions, and than double it!
That is your pole count. Count all the things that the wire is wound around, that is your slot count

and BAM! instant lay out

I have a very similiar one, unfortunately mine has copper coated alum wire, and I just may wind another pure copper over top if it until there is no more space between the slots
And upgrade the magnets to deodymes. This way, I can have two cut in speeds, or two attirbutes from having two differant AWG wires wound.

Also, before I forget, find one little spot on your stator wire that is safe to scrape with some good pressure. If it shows shinny, its alum, if it barely changes color from the coating, its copper.
Why this is very important is ,
