Take Your RC Setup Further with the Tamiya 42190 Brushless Motor

For model drivers chasing consistent power and fine control, the Tamiya 42190 sensored brushless motor is engineered to perform. Built with competition-minded features, this motor improves throttle response and suits both on-road touring cars and off-road buggies.

Octa-Wind Design and Tunable Sensor System

The Tamiya 42190 uses an eight-layer octa winding alongside a 12.5mm magnet to deliver efficient torque and rpm characteristics. The sensor arrangement is adjustable and serviceable, letting you dial in timing and improve commutation for smoother acceleration and sharper control on track.

Enhanced Cooling to Maintain Consistent Output

Managing heat is vital in high-output motors, and this model includes front cooling provisions for improved airflow. These cooling details help preserve consistent performance during long runs and can reduce thermal stress on bearings and windings.

Compatible Across Multiple RC Platforms

Whether you race a touring car or drive a buggy, the Tamiya 42190 adapts to different setups and racing styles. Its range of windings and kv options give hobbyists flexibility for tuning acceleration or top speed depending on track demands.

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

With a balance of power, efficiency, and serviceable sensors, the Tamiya 42190 is a practical upgrade for racers wanting repeatable lap times and reliable performance.

For tight, technical club tracks the 7.5T or 8.5T windings strike a good balance between acceleration and top speed. Select based on gearing and the ESC limits you run.
The sensor board is accessible and replaceable; check connector seating, clean contacts, and replace the sensor lead if signs of wear appear. Refer to motor service guides for safe disassembly.
The front cooling provisions help but you should still monitor temps during long events. Use proper gearing and consider cooling fans for extended hot sessions to protect performance.
Match the Tamiya 42190 with a sensored-capable ESC that supports the motor s kv range and a battery pack that meets voltage and discharge needs. Quality connectors and a tuned pinion/spur setup help extract consistent performance.
