Default TopFlite DC-3/C-47 questions

Perfect fit.

Definitely not underpowered.

Not overpowered either- you can achieve scale flight between 1/2 - 2/3 throttle.

I honestly don't know about altitude effects for these engines, but just based on the air density ratio, I don't think your power fall-off will be too much (which applies to all engines).

P.S.

I spent a little time in Billings and Colstrip, Montana- some of the prettiest scenery I have ever seen.
