I was DC-3 mechanic back in the 80s. This model looks perfect. Now I work in Seattle airport, Alaska Air"s home and hub. Thanks for sharing this.
Thats ironic. Alaska airlines in seattle
You should check out the Golden Era Aviation DC-3 flight tour at the Palmer AK airport. It is one of my favorite planes
Thanks for sharing.
Wait wakt/ its right their?
did you know the guy who stole and crashed the plane there a few years ago?
Beautiful work as usual Plasmo! I love it! Thank you for your videos my friend!
Excelente video desde Chile abrazo me encanta los aviones el aeromodelismo gran trabajo 👍👍

Nice work great plane and model. I like your videos. I wish i have 1/4 of your skills. Waiting for real hydraulic systems in your models😉.
yes, very nice, and the techniques shown here are "translatable" to many multi-engine aircraft, in a natural metal finish. The one thing that all that electronic "smoke and mirrors" stuff convinced me of is: I never want to do it. Models are not "toys" to me. Well maybe I might do some, with due restraint, for lighting up a space craft model, in a diorama scene where it is dark all the time,.... you know, ….like in deep space, or on the far side of a tidally-locked planet or the moon!! : ) Might be a "future" project for you, if you have not already done so!!
Practice makes perfect
I 100% agree. I'm already incredibly clumsy with models, typically breaking 4-5 parts every model, so having to add in the variable or servo motors and lights, no thank you. I also have no clue when (or if) I'd use it, if it had enough power to take off to begin with.
Like the working prop and lights very nice.👍😁

now i need to assemble a few seats. - *slides mountain of plastic onto the table*
You should just use shrink tubes to seal the exposed wires. Much easier than having to roll tapes around the wire.
Dear David, I had foolishly thought that you had reached a peak of perfection with the Viper. I was wrong! This is a step higher! Very well done for your work of art and your patience to explain each step to us 'normal' scale modelers.
PLASMO POWER!!! 👍
SUPER POWER !
EXTERMINATE!
What a beautiful model of one of my all time favorite aircraft. You did such a authentic job that it's hard to tell from the full scale. Congratulations on such a great build!
That feeling when you finish working on the cockpit of an i-16 only to close it between the fuselages and not see any of your hard work
I-16 has a open cockpit its worse with large bombers like B-17 and avro lancasters
Also is 'too' you illiterate...
Yeah I basically skipped the interior on my B 17
@@tracksidefilms5416 Same here on all interiors. As it is, I already have too many unbuilt models from lack of time.
@@superbmediacontentcreator you're the illiterate. He was right. It is "to" learn before correcting people buddy.

I was an AF aircrew member on a variation of the C-47/DC-3 during the Vietnam War in 1970 & 1971. I flew on 146 combat missions. Watching this assembly brought back so many memories. I love your attention to detail, and you are very meticulous in the assembly. Naturally, I have models of the C-47, but not to your high caliber. Great job!
Like other allready said. Wow, awesome build
did anyone notice when he was painting the wing at 16:28 it matched the music?
omg that timing XD
there was music ??
Well spotted!
David, could you possibly do a WWII bomber (say a B-24?) that was hit with flak and bullets and just made it back to it's base but had to 'crash land' because only one engine was working and only one of the landing gear would deploy properly. Or something similar. You do such marvelous models and dioramas that I think it would look wonderful. Just a thought on my part. PEACE:)
Christopher Pappas Yeah! And the copilot has acne and the ball turret gunner soiled himself! Just a thought on my part.
Let plasmo build the plane and get kyackasaurus to build the scenery sans dinosaur!
ohgary Dont Forget the blood everywere
How about a bomber that was known for getting her boys home- a B-17
A Memphis Bell reference?
My jaw dropped to the ground when I saw those props spin. What can I say, I'm a sucker for electronics. Also everything else about this model is amazing!
That just took it to a whole new level
So when PLASMO painted the seatbelts I said, "clearly he is nuts" then he painted the frikken' dials on the control panel. I surrender. I love the red pilots cabin. Love is a strong word. "I enjoy the peculiar hue of the control cabin."
Alaskan Airlines' famous Ghost DC-3 (no passengers no pilot).
Nice work, PLASMO.
I would never fly with that airline again with all the wires everywhere for passengers to trip over, nevermind the 5000 watt spotlights in the cabin stopping us from sleeping. 😆 Great result. 👍
SteelScooter Never mind. I expect their DC3s have long ago been converted into beer cans! :)
And those bloody great batteries just waiting to zap an unsuspecting passenger.And I don't think I would be using that aircraft cleaning service in a hurry,not after the state they left those wings in!.
Terrific job, man! Love the lighting and weathering technique. Very inventive. I used to build models when I was younger. Then I had kids. (no regrets) This makes me want to get into it again, now that they're grown. Thanks for posting.
You should!
You making your model plane is great. But I want tell you, this plane was service Hong Kong with went to all country in 1957-1968. In nowaday, the DC-3 plane is parking in the Hong Kong Science museum with let citizen to see the old plane. If you have interesting to see the really DC-3 plane, you can come to Hong Kong with see that old plane. By the way, we are welcome you. 😃
Great Looking Model!
Today, I showed one of your videos to a friend who always mocks me for my hobby (a 17 year old scale modeller is a bit unusual around here) and he finally understood what draws me to this wonderful hobby of ours. Hope im not the only one here looking forward to lots of christmas/winter days spent at a working table..
David 404
Same here. All of my friends think I’m crazy to be interested in building models
@@seanm3988 I experienced similar things at your age, but I've never regretted my many hobbies (including scale modeling). They help you learn new skills and teach you so much. Now, all my peers (40s) who didn't have hobbies don't know how to actually DO anything outside of work. They just watch TV or play videogames. It's pathetic, really.
I'm 17 years old as well and I love making models.
That's great you are all making models. It's going to be a dying art if it isn't kept up. People today are so luck to have the internet for learning so much so fast in the model world. Don't let other divert you from this hobby. It's sometimes nicknamed styrene therapy. Hardest part is staying off the net long enough to get things built.
Don't worry about them at all! This is a great hobby and art, you only get better with each, and it's a great stress relief!
I like this nerd... even got used to the accent after 2 videos! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
For wiring there's these markers that can draw conductive lines, so its possible not to put cable all over the place
Very inspiring video, thanks. You mention something about using a microcontroller for the motors and lights and I was wondering if you were thinking of the Microbit-controller? My own ambition is to program a Microbit to simulate the start-up cycle but I needed much practical info before getting down to that of which you provide a lot in your video.
Improving everyday. Amazing model. I like the working propellers and lights. They give life to the model.
ok.. how did you do it!!.. how in the hell did you free hand drill that hole in the prop hub and get it perfectly centered!??... awesome skill...
For me one of the most iconic aircraft is the DC-3, it was very good model, I imagine the patience you must have to assemble, paint and finish a model like that, my best congratulations for this great work David, I was surprised , thanks for sharing.
Very nice and cool build again . I have the same kit in my stash and need to ask , why you used the plastic landing gear equipment instead of metal ones , that allready coming with the kit ?
What a beautiful and poetic piece of modeling juelelry!
I dont know if its been said yet, but looks at Magnet Wire. Its super thin, has a coating that seals the wire and burns off with just a touch of the iron. I use it to light models. It can some times be a pain to work with but if you take your time with it, its perfect for small tight areas.
Plasmo; Once again, a superb job on the model detail on one of my favorite aircraft...paining the decal line was an interesting solution...some suggestions: use enameled ultra small gauge "magnet wire" which you need much less room for, and can make disappear easier (scrape away enamel before soldering)...I think your fans would like to see this Gooney Bird presented in an Alaska airport diorama. Cheers
I think this dude MIGHT defeat TomsModelling I guese...?
Very excellent building - thanks - a pleasure to watch !!!
Can you please do a video or tell me how you did the engine electricals as do they need programming? Resistors ? Please teach me
I made a rule that I can’t skip any adds for a month and there’s a 30 minute long add
Abuot the colours I think this the Malév Li-2 airplane
I actually said "Holy shit plasmo." just from seeing that thumbnail!
Cool project. The electronics was a cool feature.
Always my favorite Aircraft since I was a kid building in the 60's ! Love this video and thank you.
Heat shrink tubing would help clean up your wiring and be much easier to work with rather than electrical tape. Very detailed and awesome work on an iconic american model. Let's see more. Happy holidays.
What an amazing achievement, I love the level of detail and patience you put into each model. I love this idea of adding lights and moving props Displays with functionality. Its given me a really good idea for a project I will be starting soon and now it HAS to have lights in. Well done David keep up the top quality work. Id suggest heat shrink for the wire connectors rather than electrical tape its a little easier imo and takes up less space.
Look forward to the next one.
Wow was off one of a video suggested to me I subscribed really awsome
Stunning! Really like how you made your own decals that were correct for Alaska Air... and painting the blue stripes on decal paper.... how cool. Love lights and props, and wiring layout. Thanks for posting this video!
Why are you so absurdly talented? You find a problem, cut open the model and expand or extend your model with absolutely no signs of the change. You bend a cloth hanger and burn a rubber duck and implement it into the model and make it integrated but invisible. You bend a piece of plastic and puddy it up and sand it down, and like magic you have added 5 seamless centimeters to your model .
And this time you implement engines and lights in a airline model built in mid thirties. It was almost expected in the star destroyer, but in a DC3 was surprising, and that you made it work as you did was amazing. I HAVE ordered micro motors and micro diodes to copy your work, but i want to try it in other models tho as i don't like the DC3 much, it is loved to much here in Denmark = everybody have built one. But maybe in a Airbus A380 or a Jumbo Jet where rotating turbines would look amazing. (BTW, what happened to the blinking tail diode on the finished DC 3?)
I try to copy your work and end up with a bent airliner or a tank with half a rubber duck on the roof and start looking for yet a new model of the bloody airliner, you sir, are immensely talented :D
I love your work and often see your videos 5 - 10 times to learn the smallest moves you make, you are an inspiration for anyone who try to make natural looking models :D
love it!. Only thing I would change (personal opinion) is the brightness of the cockpit light. Maybe use less bright LED or add a resistor.. but that's just me. Great video!
How can I subscribe to a channel several times?
Just WOW! Nice job man. After this video i really want to build a flying airplane.
Haja paciência, más ficou show de bola.
I always feel like I owe you something for these videos. Stellar camera work and editing.
I haven't used any of the Mr series products, so I don't know the difference between that and what I have used. So far I really like the Vallejo Metal Color series paints. I find they have a very realistic color/tone, are easy to use and are affordable.
That was a really cool build and gave me a bit of inspiration to build some models with lights and moving components. Yet again, another great video. Thanks for sharing.
Nádhernej model , prosim postav model b-29 super fortress mám ho skoro slepený a ten tvůj by byl super
Pure art, your skilled hands can create a model so realistic that if you've put it outside and taken a close up picture it would've been difficult to believe it was a model and not the real thing. One thing I would've done well 2 haha first find a way to dim the brightness of the lights and second, use the same yellow lights you used in the cabin for the outside as well. But lights or no lights it is pure art still amazing just amazing.
Oh wow I never thought of wiring the plane thrue the holes in the wings so the propellers would work true profection 👌😊
I never tire of watching these videos. Your skill and talent are incredible to watch. Truly amazing.
The motor has all that detail just to get covered : (
Should you do future lighting projects suggest looking into electronics used in HO & N scale model railroading. Lots of small gauge wire, plugs, led lights, resisters, etc. Also heat shrink tubing to protect solder joint from touching and shorting out. These items should simplify the fitting of components into small spaces.
+1 for the recommendation to use heat shrink tubing around the solder joints.
Wow, another great work David. This is something new the e-motors. Superb.
greetings from good old germany :-D
In my opinion the electric part was hard
IT WORKS?
I'm sold
This is the best modelling channel
Love it but the lighting inside the cockpit and the cabin is way too bright.
Amazing modell. It would be nice if you would build a Mirage model like the 7-TP in 1:35 scale. Or another Mirage product. I think they're ok and you could give a nice review of their work!
Here should be an acces for 18+, because this is really P.O.R.N.
1:33 OOF i think plasmo plays roblox
Normi Ukkeli just because they say oof doesn’t mean they play roblox
Wow ! Your work is awesome....great😃
Always a pleasure to see your movies ....
Tks a lot
Great job
Congrats
Nice work and great video. Good idea to paint the leds with proper color. I always used the colored LEDs with clear lenses or colored lenses as appropriate and shaped the actual led to the proper shape. I used the LM3909 flasher chip and rheostat and resistor (all from Radio Shack back in the day) to get the flashing the proper frequency and adjust to proper brightness. Cabin lights were dimmed pretty low) I did a Learjet 35 in 1988 with cabin lights, cockpit (using homemade fiber optics and Green LEDs for the CRTs (Pre-glass cockpit Learjet)), wingtip navs and rotating anti-collision beacons. I put the rotating red beacons on separate chips so they could flash out of synchrony. I don't recall the anti-collision beacons (red flashing) on your model. Some are strobes and some are slow flashers because they are actually rotating beacons in a teardrop shaped housing. The older ones were rotating beacons so on a C-47 they would not be strobes unless it is a modernized one. Love your vids. You have a real talent.
It is a shame the Trumpeter DC-3/C-47 is dreadfully inaccurate in MANY respects. One look at an assembled one screamed to me to NEVER purchase the kit, as it is SO wrong. (undercarriage, engines and cowls, nose shape and so on - it's REALLY toy-like). The old Mongram version is MUCH better in terms of accuracy - I have no problems super-detailing a kit if the outline and dimensions are accurate. And besides, the Monogram (Revell) kit is 2/3rds less expensive.
You did an interesting job on a very mediocre kit. For that you got a like :)
LKM 777 I agree completely, I've built many Monograms and don't know why builders shy away, for "modern" kits. It's not that big a chore to re-scribe panel lines if that's your beef with raised ones. Suck it up, do the work; that's what it is all about. It's easier than accurizing major outline problems and inaccurate dimensions, as you state. It just makes my skin crawl to see a model kit review that states: "it just built itself". What's the point then? As for the lights spinning props and stuff, I'm not a fan of TOYS people! That's for kids, not us men! Otherwise, a nice effort for this classic plane!
Thank you for another excellent tutorial. The electronics was a bit of extra work...but adds an interesting dimension to the model. Well done!
Excellent job, just loved your video
The yoda of model building 👌 I think this is my favourite video you have done I've done static modelling for some time but recently got into rc tanks and have done all the electronics in them as for your wiring there's nothing wrong with it mate as long as it works 👍
Really good work, nice that you intergrate lightning to top the model off👍 I helped my brother to program a arduino for the blinking lights and landinggear light for his F15 modell. A tip for the LED's, install a variable resistor, in that way you can adjust the brightness when the modell is all done😀
I will have to ry that in by b-17g
Fantastic work as ursual. I love the mix of modelling and electronics skills. Keep up the good work!

I'm a builder of homes, remodel old wooden interiors such as moldings door frames window frames, furniture, I like to bring back original wooden grain. This channel is a great example of details that make this an art form, it's very interesting to see your ideas come to light, breathing life into objects. Thank you.
Tipp: use glasfibers to guide the light precisely to the spot you want it to be. It also makes it also easier to change LEDs if they quit service against expect.
In the Miniaturwunderland they also use extremely tiny LEDs (below SMT scale) who are pre-wired but I couldnt find them in the internet.
He did that with the star destroyer build.
Took one wild ride in 1980, at night from Missoula to Billings with a 20 man fire-crew. An old Johnson, Smokejumper's DC-3(?) with both sides bench seats locked upright, gear tied into aluminum floor. Crew on gear, or wherever else you could hold on. Turbulence dreadful. We survived, what a bird. Nice tribute, Plasmo..
Your work, David, is museum quality! Tamiya should hire you to build all their models for cover photography! Brilliant work!
great vid. one small suggestion. instead of electrical tape use heatshrink. much easier than cutting small piece of electrical tape which can in time loose the glue and simply open.
Thanks. I already purchased different diameters of heat shrinks, so I use them next time. And also thinner conductors :-D
PLS MAKE military aircraft next time
This is an amazing build! I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you for taking the time to both educate and inspire us with these projects.
Excellent! Your modelling skills are matched by your video production skills. The DC3 is still the pinnacle of airplane design.
The best plane!
Excellent work. I no longer build many 1/48 - scale aircraft but I watched this video with much satisfaction. Again, thank you for an inspirational build!
There's only one winner. Lets go
Great done. Even these wires looks realistic like in real plane. ;) And finish is also perfect. Also, self made masks were good idea. Maybe you will do something similar in 1/72 scale? It will be even more cool! ;) All the best for You! ;)
You continue to amaze with your skills....very impressive model and techniques on show. Really enjoy watching your vids and listening to your comments as you work. Thanks for sharing again.
This is some of your best work.......
You sir have a new subscriber today. I love the work and realism you add to your models. I look forward to your future projects...and hope to see some Aussie aircraft :)
Wow! I love your models, I wish I could do something like this some day. For me you are Expert, so i want to ask about one thing. I want to buy my first airbrush, and I don't really know wich one. Is TG-130 good for start?
A great build, again! I'm surprised you don't mask around the seam lines before you fill them though. Less sanding, filling and rescribing that way.
What a wonderful build! I really liked the spray paint decal technique, very useful and easier than printing. Have to try that out.
Did I hear you correctly, this is a comissioned work for the airline?
They certainly got their monies worth! Outstanding!
Hi! Great work. For those large paint jobs try the Iwata Eclipse HP G3 with fan control. You can spray a wide pattern with little to no overspray of the material. Very even coat of material to with the fan type.
This is insane. You always hear the phrase "Next level" and this is a perfect example. This is one of your best videos yet!
I did not see you apply decal softener to the decals. Do you not do it?
Awesome build, love all the electrical work on this one!
