Maximise Track Performance with the Tamiya 42190 Motor

Model racers who value precise control and consistent output will appreciate the Tamiya 42190 sensored brushless motor. It is designed to deliver refined throttle feel and strong torque for both road and off-road competition.

Efficient Octa-Wind and Adjustable Sensor Setup

The Tamiya 42190 pairs an octa-wound stator with a 12.5mm magnet to balance efficiency and punch. Its sensor system is adjustable and replaceable, letting you refine timing for smoother starts and better mid-range control.

Cooling Design Targets Thermal Stability

To combat heat build-up in demanding sessions, the motor includes front cooling features that help channel air across the rotor. This keeps performance more consistent and reduces thermal wear on internal parts.

Suitable for Diverse RC Applications

Whether you run a tuned touring car or a race buggy, the Tamiya 42190 adapts through its multiple winding options and kv ratings, giving tuners the freedom to prioritise acceleration or top speed.

Specifications

  • Motor Type: Sensored Brushless
  • Winding Types: 4.5T, 5.0T, 7.5T, 8.5T, 9.5T
  • KV Rates: 7,700 (4.5T), 7,000 (5.0T), 4,700 (7.5T), 4,100 (8.5T), 3,800 (9.5T)
  • Compatibility: Touring Cars and Buggy

Offering tuneable sensors and solid thermal management, the Tamiya 42190 is a practical motor for racers seeking predictable performance and easy servicing.

While the motor is sensored and benefits from sensored ESCs for smooth low-speed control, it can be run sensorless if the ESC supports the motor s rpm and the application tolerates reduced low-end predictability.
Cooling covers improve airflow to the front of the motor and can lower operating temperatures during sustained use, which helps keep power delivery stable over multiple heats.
Replacement sensor boards and leads are typically available through parts suppliers; replacing a worn sensor assembly restores reliable timing and avoids intermittent cutouts.
Gearing depends on track layout and battery voltage. Start with standard gearing from your vehicle s setup guides, then adjust pinion size to tune acceleration versus top speed while monitoring motor temps.
