The Yokomo RPM-DX135RR is a DX1R Type-R class 13.5T brushless motor voice-tuned for drift driving on high-grip surfaces such as asphalt and carpet. The design keeps the established Type-R case profile while adding a colour-anodized can and back plate to complement popular chassis finishes, including visual matches to YD-2 variants. The motor delivers high rev range with linear acceleration and a deliberately neutral braking feel to help reduce abrupt understeer during entry and transitions.
On the mechanical side the unit follows the DX1R layout with a rotor size D12.0xd7.25. Internal stator and coil choices have been revised to encourage smoother rotation through the rev band. In use this motor is aimed at drivers who want a responsive, high-revving sensation for drift setups while keeping braking predictable and controllable.
Installation and tuning notes: mount the RPM-DX135RR into compatible drift chassis using existing motor mount hardware and verify pinion mesh before power-up. Set ESC timing and throttle curves conservatively for a 13.5T profile, then refine gearing for your surface and driving style. The anodized finish is cosmetic and does not affect fitment or electrical connections.
For drift-focused RC builds that prioritise a high-rev, smooth-response motor and coordinated chassis aesthetics, the RPM-DX135RR offers a plug-and-play option with colour-matched styling and tunable behaviour on asphalt and carpet surfaces.
