This article shows how to control the step for the minutes selector in the popup.

Solution

The hosted RadDateTimePickerCalendar contains a TimePickerElement that offers Step property:

C#

    
this.radDateTimePicker1.DateTimePickerElement.ShowTimePicker = true;
RadDateTimePickerCalendar calendarBehavior = this.radDateTimePicker1.DateTimePickerElement.GetCurrentBehavior() as RadDateTimePickerCalendar;
calendarBehavior.TimePicker.TimePickerElement.Step = 1;
calendarBehavior.Calendar.MinimumSize= new Size(300,0);

VB.NET

Me.RadDateTimePicker1.DateTimePickerElement.ShowTimePicker = True
Dim calendarBehavior As RadDateTimePickerCalendar = TryCast(Me.RadDateTimePicker1.DateTimePickerElement.GetCurrentBehavior(), RadDateTimePickerCalendar)
calendarBehavior.TimePicker.TimePickerElement.[Step] = 1
calendarBehavior.Calendar.MinimumSize = New Size(300, 0)
   
    

The achieved result is illustrated below:
