Except that Bacterial flagellum isn't a motor. It isn't a machine. You are making a poor attempt at mixing biology with man made machines, such as airplanes. See below.
You can't do that. To do so would be like calling an apple the exact same thing as a Rubik's Cube.

Quote:Flagellum, plural flagella, hairlike structure that acts primarily as an organelle of locomotionin the cells of many living organisms. Flagella, characteristic of the protozoan group Mastigophora, also occur on the gametes of algae, fungi, mosses, slime molds, and animals. Flagellar motion causes water currents necessary for respiration and circulation in sponges and coelenterates. Most motile move by means of flagella...
....Bacterial flagella are helically shaped structures containing the protein flagellin. The base of the flagellum (the hook) near the cell surface is attached to the basal body enclosed in the cell envelope. The flagellum rotates in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, in a motion similar to that of a propeller.
