An ideal synchronous motor has no starting torque because

 rotor winding is highly reactive.
 relative velocity between the stator and rotor mmf’s is zero.
 rotor is made up of salient poles.
  relative velocity between stator and rotor mmf’s is not zero.

In dc machines, the field system has to be provided on stator unlike synchronous machines Where in it could be on any member, because

 dc machines are comparatively low rating machines.
 it gives more uniform air-gap flux distribution
 commutator action is not possible otherwise
 it reduces field structure iron losses
