building instructions
The model of the DC3 as a "cartoon variant" is part of the Fatty
Season, which is available here in the shop. The models are simple
in construction and allow a quick construction progress. The wing
for example. consists of only a few components. The selected "KF"
profile thus facilitates the construction.
Technical specifications:
 Wingspan : 1240 mm
 Fuselage lenght : 920 mm
 Weight : 1400 Gr. (depending on engine, retract and battery
selection)
 Motorization: 2 X D Power AL 28-09 ( 980 U/min/V)
 Controller: 2 X 25 A
 Propeller : Master Aiscrew 9X7 left & right
 Battery selection : 3S – 3500 mAh
 RC-function : Elevator / Rudder / Aileron and Throttle
The Depron components are precisely adjusted using a CNC
machine. Positions of all adjacent components were also CNC
marked and labeled. This ensures that all adjacent components
can be glued on with a perfect fit.

kit contents:
All necessary Depron components can be found in the Depron
parts set. Furthermore, the main spar, the chassis carrier and
engine mount made of plywood are included. A template for
bending the landing gear wire and PVC molded radial engine
dummies.
Adhesives or RC components are not included!

The production of all components and the completeness of the kits
were carried out personally and conscientiously. If you notice any
inaccuracies or missing components, please contact me in order to
be able to offer you and subsequent customers a product that is as
satisfactory as possible. [e-mail]
General:
The building material DEPRON is a very light building material that
is normally used in house construction. In hardware stores you
can find it in wallpaper departments under the name "under
wallpaper" as an insulating layer under the wallpaper. Due to its
low weight (e.g. 10X10 cm of 6 mm Depron weighs 2 grams) and
its stability, it is ideal for building "slowflyers" up to weight
classes of well over 3 kg. Depron has therefore had a justified
place in the model flight sky for many years reached.
Depronverarbeitung:

verformt werden. Das beschleifen von Ecken und überstehenden
Depron processing:
Depron can be deformed cold over a table edge with the palm of
your hand. Corners and protruding edges can be sanded down
with fine emery paper. When cutting Depron, use a sharp, narrow-
bladed box cutter. When bonding Depron-Depron, UHU-Por is very
well suited, unless it is under tension during bonding, or in
connection with other materials, or the bonding is subject to
greater stress. You use the proven epoxy resin or water-based
white glue. "Moldofil" modeling spatula from the hardware store is
ideal for filling gaps and unevenness. The toothpaste-like paste
can be filled into the Depron column very well and is hardly harder
than Depron after it has hardened.

Building instructions:
The engine nacelles:
1. The motor nacelles U1-U9 & O1 - O10 are manufactured in
layers. There are a total of 4 assemblies, consisting of an upper
and lower nacelle, which are located above or below the wing. For
both sides. In order to center the individual layers, there is a hole
in the layer plates in order to thread them onto it with a Bowden
cable tube or similar.
2. The area hatched with a ballpoint pen is not provided with glue,
as later this cross will be broken out of the finished gondolas. "O"
stands for nacelle up, "U" for nacelle down.

Then sand down all four gondola halves.

There should be a 10 mm bar at the front, and the bars on
the inside can now be cut out.

The wing:
First, the heling is assembled from parts T4, T4A & T4B and glued.

The plywood beam is centered in T1 and glued on a flat surface.
Glue on T2 (3 parts), paying attention to the markings on T1.

Glue T2 left and right to T1 as well, see photo.

Sand the adhesive surfaces of the Depron components at an angle
until they lie snugly against each other.
Now glue the wing ends to the heling.

Now all the cables for the aileron servos, main power cable and
controller servo cable can be placed in the cable ducts provided.
2. Make a small cut for the aileron servo wires as shown in the
photo.
1.5 mm2 silicone cables are sufficient for the power supply
Laying the cables for the nacelles without glue can later be
pulled through the wing as required for the necessary lengths.

When all cables are inserted, close the wing with T3 left / right
and middle.
