Ki pravi, da ne smemo uporabljati smernega krmila ob "izgubi" motorja.TWIN ENGINE AERODYNAMICS
A twin engine model flies no differently than a single
engine model - as long as both engines are properly
tuned and as long as both engines stay running! But -
sooner or later, you will lose an engine. I ask you, how
often do you lose an engine on your single engine
models? You’ll lose one twice that often on a twin!
If you lose an engine on a twin, there will be a directional
control problem! If the right engine fails, the left engine will
pull the nose of the aircraft to the right. On a full size aircraft
you use rudder to control the yaw and carefully control the
airspeed with the remaining engine. Do not use the rudder
on this DC-3 if an engine quits. Flying at too slow an
airspeed with one engine at full power could exceed the
ability of the control surfaces to control the yaw.

Lep pozdrav v pričakovanju novih modelovTWIN ENGINE TRAINING
Your Top Flite DC-3 represents a substantial investment
in time and money. For that reason, I suggest that you
start your multi-engine training with a model that you
won’t be so emotionally involved with. Get a Hobbico
TwinStarTM for your training. It’s an ARF and will go
together in a couple of weekends. It is an excellent twin
engine trainer. It will save some serious knee knocking
time verses risking your Top Flite DC-3 and, it’s
inexpensive. Use the same engines on it that you will
use on your DC-3 so that you may thoroughly break
them in.
For additional information on how to handle your DC-3
in an engine out situation, refer to the “Engine Out”
