Overview of the DX1R TypeR 13.5T

The Yokomo RPM-DX135RA is a brushless motor designed within the DX1R range for drift drivers tackling moderate-grip asphalt and short technical circuits. The TypeR 13.5T configuration aims to balance high-rpm range with controllable throttle feel for predictable transitions.

Notable engineering updates include a changed stator and coil arrangement that differentiates the R unit from the DX1T, along with a revised motor housing that improves heat transfer. Rotor dimensions are listed as D12.0xd7.25. These improvements reduce thermal sag so output stays more consistent during longer runs.

Fitment and setup: the RPM-DX135RA is compatible with SDR-010 and SDR-010LTS chassis patterns. Use a brushless-compatible ESC and set throttle endpoints and timing conservatively to match the motor’s smoother high-rpm delivery. Linear throttle maps help keep traction predictable.

Tuning guidance: employ the DX1R 13.5T when you want steady acceleration into high revs without abrupt torque spikes on moderate-grip surfaces. Adjust gearbox ratios and ESC curves to control wheelspin and mid-corner transitions according to tyre choice and chassis balance.

For drivers running medium-grip surfaces, the RPM-DX135RA TypeR 13.5T offers a focused package for predictable high-rpm behaviour. The tuned internal parts and improved casing help control heat and keep throttle response consistent in SDR-010 family builds.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will this motor mount directly to SDR-010 chassis?

The RPM-DX135RA is listed as compatible with SDR-010 and SDR-010LTS. Confirm the motor mount hole pattern and any spacer needs before bolting it in.

In practical terms, how does the R variant change handling?

Expect smoother high-rpm response and fewer abrupt torque hits compared with the DX1T. That trait helps keep drift transitions more controllable on grippier surfaces.

Does the new case design really cut down heat build-up?

The updated housing improves cooling compared with prior variants, which lowers the risk of performance drop as temperatures climb during extended runs. Maintain airflow for best results.

What ESC map works best with TypeR 13.5T?

A linear throttle map combined with low to moderate timing gives the most predictable behavior. Make incremental changes and test between runs to find the sweet spot.

How should I use the rotor measurement in setup checks?

Use the D12.0xd7.25 rotor spec to verify clearance inside your motor mount and any shrouds or fans you plan to fit. It helps avoid unwanted contact.
