  4. Hi Martin not at all thank you for the info i have built lots and lots of diffrent dc3s from tony nijuis to ziroli ,so seasoned may be a word lol i am starting with the center section wing ,which has half the fuz attached ,but it doesnt show what the wood for the spars is, either / spruce or stronger balsa ,i would have imagined that if the center section is holding 2 outer panel wings then it must be ply or obechi, in theorey
  5. Hi all i have recently been trying to build this model from slec the plan has a lot of information missing like dimmensions of parts listed, It does not seem to show information like what type of wood is used etc I seem to be at a loss with this kit which is a shame considering how much i paid for it! i write here on this forum with the smallest of hopes that someone had allready built this and can give some tips cheers. if no replies then i think im going to try and make a build log here kind regards Paul ok so here's a start

  7. Hi all Can i ask im stuck on the shape front and rear of the wing faring especially the curving around the front part to the underside,,im just not getting it somehow, have done the obvious part where the former curves around, but the front is really stumping me any help would be greatly appreciated paul
  8. Hi All i have found my winter build for this year and up to spring i hope it is the Robin Fowler Dc3/C47 this is an 8ft wing span and comes apart in 5 sections ,the wing center section has half of the fuz with the cocpit fully connected,then the 2 outer wings that slide into the center wing, then the tail section half of the fuz ...very transportable.. this looks really difficult, because the grain on some of the formers run in differant directions, so it looks like a load of cutting is needed, and it only comes with the abs moldings so in a funny way ive got my work.....cut out lol
  9. Hi Craig yes ill build the dc3 without flaps on this one cause its going to be a protortype to see if i built it properly. but on the next one ill build the flaps in with the same configeration as the top flight dc3,
  10. Hi am building this dc3 and am making the wing tips out of depron foam .. would it be advisable to build washout into the wing tips to prevent tip stalling???
