Although the DC-3/C-47 is designed to be easy to fly, it is 

not for the first-time pilot. We strongly recommend getting 
assistance from an experienced pilot for your first flights. If 
you’re not a member of an R/C club, your local hobby shop 
has information about clubs in your area whose membership 
includes experienced pilots. You can also contact the National 

Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) which has over 2,500 

chartered clubs across the country. Instructor training 
programs and insured newcomer training are available 
through any of these clubs. www.modelaircraft.org

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Your DC-3/C-47 should not be considered a toy, but rather a 

sophisticated, working model that functions very much like 
a full-size airplane. Because of its performance capabilities, 
the DC-3/C-47, if not assembled and operated correctly, 
could possibly cause injury to yourself or spectators and 
damage to property.

 1.   Operate the plane 

according to the instructions

DO NOT

 

alter or modify the model. If you make any modifications, 

you void the warranty.

 2.   

Test

 the operation of the model 

before each flight

 to 

ensure that all equipment is operating properly and that 
the model remains structurally sound.

 3.   Fly only indoors or outdoors on very calm days (with wind 

speeds less than 5mph) and in large open areas free of 
trees, people, buildings, or any other obstacles.

serious and permanent injury to yourself and others.
