In one aspect, a pump for moving air includes an inlet, an outlet, an outer housing adapted to couple to an inflatable device, and an inner housing located within the outer housing. An air conduit is defined between the inner housing and the outer housing. A motor is at least partly positioned within the inner housing, and a plurality of vanes are positioned within the air conduit.

What is claimed is: 1. An inflatable device comprising:a fluid controller including:a valve assembly including a valve;a pump for moving air, the pump fluidly coupled to the valve and including:an outer housing including an inlet configured to fluidly couple the pump to ambient;an inner housing located within the outer housing and defining an air conduit between the inner housing and the outer housing;a motor including a stator at least partly positioned within the inner housing; anda plurality of vanes positioned within the air conduit for a majority of a length of the air conduit; andan opening mechanism, at least partly located within the outer housing of the pump, the opening mechanism configured to be operational by a user to allow the user to open the valve,wherein the valve fluidly couples the pump to the inflatable device,wherein the fluid controller is configured to allow the user to open the valve with the opening mechanism to release air from within the inflatable device to ambient without aid of the pump,wherein the inflatable device includes an inflatable bladder,wherein a majority of the pump and a majority of the valve assembly are positioned within a profile of the inflatable bladder when the pump is coupled to the valve assembly in a mounted position and orientation, andwherein in the same mounted position and orientation of the pump, the fluid controller is configured to electronically open the valve to permit air to exit the inflatable bladder through the fluid controller and to energize the pump to provide air to the inflatable bladder through the pump and the valve.
