    Excellent video but you have one error. You leave the mixer all the way down (idle). When you start your engines, the mixer will move up automatically. When you move the mixer up like you did, it can damage or start a fire to the engines. I'm not a pilot but another youtube reviewer received a message from a real DC-3 pilot who told him about the mixer. Anyway, very informative video. Thank you.

    I took her up once so far and I fell in love. Notwithstanding the history of her military varient at Normandy and beyond, she just sounds amazing.

    I flew 1,600 hours on the DC3 - we never opened the storm windows & spent a lot of time with chewing gum to water proof them, until some rotten cleaner opened them to clean the windows. :o)
    BTW The windscreen wipers were hydraulic & as you turned them on you could get them to warp speed.
    You start the engines with mags & mixture off using booster coil & primer till it fires & then mixture Auto Rich.

    Thanks for the DC-3 introduction and I share your love for this iconic airplane. Aeroplane Heaven has done a fantastic job. Since installing update 11 I also get the message 'connection lost' very regularly.

      Those messages seem to appear when the server does not respond in a certain interval. In flight the game may pause, speech can change to default, very annoying.

    Everything about this plane is beautiful. The sound the history and it flys so well. My favourite part is definitely the humming of the radial engines, sometimes it puts me to sleep on long flights. 😂. Amazing video

    One more thing. I didn’t realize and took me a while to figure this out. If you load DC3 with retrofit livery, you’ll get GNS 430/530. For original old fashioned navigation instruments, you need to load a “classic” version

    Yes I've been getting those connection lost pop up messages as well. They almost caused me to crash when coming in for a landing because you lose control of the aircraft until you acknowledge the message.

    The landing gear lever is not working. How do you retract gear after take off? What do we bind the trim tab, pitch trim, to since the regular GA trim from other aircraft doesn’t work in this plane?

    It's an awesome plane! been enjoying it, together with the Beaver. The only gripe I have is that some of the sound efeects seem way too loud, such as the flaps and raising/lowering the wheels. Also it often seems to balloon a bit right after takeoff, which seems atypical for the DC-3.
    Other than that I'm having lots of funb with the DC-3! Thanks for the instructions Murph!

    • @remko1
      @remko1 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Adding some nose down trim before takeoff could help reduce that ballooning effect.

    Very helpful intro to the DC3, thank you. Perhaps the Microsoft server is under strain these days. In my experience the link is broken much more frequently since V11.

  • @waynebutler7756
    @waynebutler7756 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video thank you. One of the main differences between the DC3 and the C-47 was around the tail which it doesnt look like Aeroplane heaven have released yet in the MSFA version or if they have I dont know how to activate it.
    The C-47 had a glider towing capability below the rudder and between the elevators and the rear of the fuz was actually cut away to take a release mechanism.
    One question... how do I getthe analogecentre console? Mine is a modern GPS system and is there a manual for this anywhere?

    • @twotonemurphy
      @twotonemurphy  ปีที่แล้ว

    Could anyone help me please, cos ever since sim update 11 I cannot get to see anyone else apart from myself. I usually fly around with my brother who lives in a different city but we no longer can see ourselves. I recently was over at his place and flew on his sim, and he can see others. I can’t. I have no idea what I’m doing wrong or what exact settings need to be activated on Data (or wherever else) to see other players. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I tried to steer the DC-3 yesterday. I like to opearte it with the real POH. Vr is apr. 100 knots... It is impossible be for me to stay on the ground for that long. Even if i push the yoke FULLY foward the airplane is in the air at about 70 knots.. dont know what im doing wrong here ... Powersettings are checked aswell. Maybe you have to fully fuel and load it up? Or maybe the performance of the sim is not accurat enough? How is your experience with this?
