Brushless Drift Motor DX1R TypeR 13.5T for SDR-010 - Yokomo RPM-DX135RA  [RPM-DX135RA]

DX1R TypeR 13.5T Technical Brief

The Yokomo RPM-DX135RA is a DX1R-series brushless motor optimized for drifting on medium-grip asphalt and tile surfaces. The TypeR 13.5T tuning aims for a smooth, high-rpm band while keeping throttle response manageable for controlled drifts.

Engineering updates include a distinct stator and coil layout compared to the DX1T variant, and a redesigned motor case that improves cooling performance. The rotor size is D12.0xd7.25. These refinements reduce thermal sag and help maintain consistent power during extended drift stints.

Fitment guidance: the RPM-DX135RA fits SDR-010 and SDR-010LTS chassis patterns; use the platform-standard motor mounts. Match the motor with a brushless-capable ESC and set throttle endpoints and timing conservatively to suit the motor’s smoother top-end nature.

Use case: the DX1R TypeR 13.5T is best when you need predictable acceleration into high revs without sudden torque spikes on moderately grippy tracks. Modify gearing and ESC curves to dial in wheelspin and transition pace for your tyre and suspension choices.

In the SDR-010 family, the RPM-DX135RA TypeR 13.5T delivers a targeted option for drivers who prioritise stable high-rpm performance and better thermal control over long drift sessions. Its internal tuning and case design support reliable throttle response.
