Introduction to the Tamiya 15455 JR Light-Dash Motor

The Tamiya 15455 JR Light-Dash Motor provides a straightforward upgrade path for Mini 4WD enthusiasts seeking consistent, race-ready performance. Its metal brush construction cuts down on internal losses and offers dependable output lap after lap.

Core benefits

  • Built to last: Metal brush components help extend operational life while maintaining steady power delivery.
  • Improved efficiency: Reduced energy loss means more effective use of each charge during race runs.
  • Yellow endbell marker: The coloured endbell makes identification simple during swaps and team setups.

Suitability and power range

Designed for Mini 4WD and Dangun Racer applications, the motor integrates with most chassis styles. It performs best when run between 2.4-3.0V, giving reliable behaviour for competitive and club racing formats.

Performance tuning notes

Operating across 14,600-17,800 rpm, the motor allows room for gearing and weight adjustments to suit different circuits. Keep torque loading near 1.3-1.9 mN.m to preserve handling while extracting performance.

Yes, it is user friendly for new builders. Basic installation and simple gear checks are usually sufficient to get reliable performance.
Inspect brushes and bearings after several race days or if you notice reduced performance. Light cleaning and bearing lubrication will help maintain longevity.
Use shorter gear ratios and focus on low-end acceleration. Trial different wheel setups and small weight shifts to improve corner exit without pushing voltage beyond 3.0V.
