I’m probably hugely oversimplifying here but let’s say you attach the electric motor directly to the prop, perhaps with some minor gearing, then what’s left in terms of moving parts? Some rudders, right?

Usually prop is directly attached to electric motor. If it's a flying wing then mechanical part is literally motor plus to ailerons. With little efforts thing cam be made hard to destroy even intentionally with heavy machine gun.
