Default RE: Top-Flite DC-3


ORIGINAL: multimike

I have a fair number of twins and multis in my collection and the only dud was a DC3, to me it is NOT a good first twin to build, the most stable, it you are into scale is a PBY, nice big thick wing, engines close together, very stable flyer good luck Mike
I have to agree, I don't think this kit is a good first twin. My Martuka P38 flew better than this kit. I had Tower hobies .40s plenty of power. At slower speeds, mine tended to tip stall. Had to come in hotter than usual and needed plenty of ground speed for take off.
(she sure was pretty though!)
