Nexa C-47 / VQ Models DC-3 - Maiden flight

Here's my new (to me) Nexa C-47 from Motion RC. Maiden flight.
I watched Scale Me Down's comprehensive build and flight log of his experience with the Nexa DC3 (same plane). Nice 8 part series. if you have a Nexa C-47 I highly suggest watching that.
here's a link • VQ Models DC3

Really nice job all round - great landing

[@ScaleMeDown]

Glad you found our series helpful. Congratulations on your successful maiden

I also have one of these but I live in Western Washington where there are 4000 trees per square miles. I envy you gents for not only living where there are fewer trees but also seem to have access to an honest to goodness abandoned air strip. Great catch, btw, just after take off with your left wing dropping.

Our runway wasn't an full size runway ever. It's a runway specifically for rc planes. I do wish it was maintained better but yes, pretty nice to have.

[@sammysouth8372]

Very nice, thorough maiden.

Gosh that's a nice plane! Looks really scale. I love the invasion stripes and the see-through windows. Glad your reflexes saved the takeoff! I've subscribed to you guys after watching two of your videos - I reckon I'll spend the weekend going through your library - great channel!

I did a few more flights with this plane. Once it tipped on landing. You really do have to keep a bit of power on when landing. But it flies awesome and it has presence in the air.

Do you have a link to your setups, especially motors?

[@all_rc]

I have the motors out of the Flightline P-38 that Motion RC sells. The props are from their Flightline B-24. The motor Should run 4s but with those props, I'm running 6s and it still running pretty low amperage. Works well for this plane

Helo wath motors and propeller adapter..please thanks..i buy one

[@all_rc]

The motors are from a Motion RC / Flightline P38 and the props are from a Motion RC / Flightline B24. This setup will require 6s batteries. The recommended motors and props will run on 4s. I haven't run it with 4s and the recommended motors but i assume it's more efficient than my setup. Check out Motion RC and it does list what motor is recommended.
