1/14 TOPA0500 Top Flite DC-3 Gold Edition R/C With Retracts - 82.5 Inch Wingspan - Eastern or C-47 Markings - With Du-Bro Wheels and Tires and Top Flite Scale Pneumatic Retractable Landing Gear
Multimedia Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Also includes Top Flite TOPQ8276 Pneumatic Retractable Landing Gear that is still factory sealed and Du-Bro 3.25" diameter #325R main gear tires and #150TW 1.5" tail wheel and tire. Both are still factory sealed. The kit itself is a very large RC 1/14 Sport Scale Airplane. The Golden Era of Aviation Eastern Air Lines replica is IMAA Legal with a fully-sheeted fuselage and wingspan of 82.5". The original airplane was designed for commercial passenger travel, and some still fly today. This is a great introduction into building and flying a scale twin-engined kit. Features excellent flying characteristics; because of the engine angle and modified aerodynamics, this kit flies extremely well, even on one engine. (Most models of the DC-3 will go inverted and crash) There is a lot of wood and precision-formed ABS tail cone, engine nacelles, wing fairings, and cockpit top. An interlocking fuselage frame builds flat on the plans and the large round fuselage requires very little carving or shaping. Can be built with split-flaps and the scale aerodynamic "Balance Tab" rudder which uses the air deflection to help turn the plane. Includes Eastern Air Lines and Optional Military C-47 decals. The kit has never been started and is factory new inside. All small parts are still factory sealed. All other parts are still in the factory rubber band bundles and have been inventoried complete including decals, great instructions and plans. NOTE: unless you specify otherwise, the kit will be shipped in the box shown.
