Conductive aerodynamic stator

An air-moving device comprising:

• an aerodynamic rotor configured to generate a flow of thrusted air when rotated;
• an aerodynamic stator located aftward of the aerodynamic rotor, wherein the aerodynamic stator comprises:
• a hub comprising an axial wall that defines a central cavity;
• and
• an electrically conductive stator vane radially extending away from an outer surface of the axial wall, wherein the electrically conductive stator vane comprises:
• a first electrical terminal at a first end of the electrically conductive stator vane, wherein the first electrical terminal extends through the axial wall of the hub into the central cavity;
• and
• a second electrical terminal at a second end of the electrically conductive stator vane opposite the first end;
• an electronic speed controller (ESC) received within the central cavity of the aerodynamic stator and in electrical communication with the electrically conductive stator vane via the first electrical terminal;
• and
• a motor located aftward of the aerodynamic stator, electrically coupled to the ESC, and mechanically coupled to the aerodynamic rotor.
