Sharpen Throttle Response with Yokomo RP-RCPA

The Yokomo RP-RCPA Racing Capacitor is intended to be wired to the ESC to provide an extra burst of power when you hit the throttle. Its high capacity delivers quicker discharge and improved transient response over standard ESC capacitors, suitable for stock touring and off-road vehicles.

Why Stock Racers Fit It

When running stock classes, settings such as boost or turbo can expose battery voltage sag under acceleration. The RP-RCPA helps reduce those dips by offering a fast supply of current that keeps performance steadier through the power band.

Safe Installation Tips

Avoid letting the terminal touch aluminium or carbon parts to prevent shorts; secure the capacitor with thick double-sided tape or insulating material. Note that with low-turn modified motors the capacitor may heat during heavy use.

Supported Chassis

  • MRTC-BD8SV
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 the RP-RCPA change my ESC programming?

No, it does not alter ESC settings; it simply supplies short bursts of current to reduce voltage sag during acceleration.

What insulation methods are recommended?

Use thick double-sided tape and a foam or rubber pad under the capacitor to keep terminals isolated from conductive chassis parts.

Is heat a concern with this capacitor?

Under hard running with low-turn modified motors the capacitor can get warm. Keep an eye on temperature during initial runs and ensure it is well ventilated.
