The Douglas C47 and DC3 has a wing span of 96 foot.
RC SCALE:
ESM C47/DC3 with 2769mm / 102 inch wing span is about 1/11 scale.
Measure the instrument panel space width of your aircraft. The fuselage of most RC aircraft seem to be a little fat, adjust cockpit panels to fit.
FINE SCALE:
Print LIFE SIZE PNG file onto 35mm (24x36mm, about 1½ inches wide) slide film.
A 35 inch wide panel printed full frame = about 1/24 scale, 2/3 frame = about 1/32 scale, and ½ frame = about 1/48 scale. Hi-white the back and install. The detail is there, but you’ll need a magnifier to see it.
Fine scale models tend to have thicker scale skin. Adjust accordingly.

C47 Dakota CDkit
represents a WW2 C47 of which 10,000 were built. The C47 Dakota CDkit can also be used for DC3C for which the layout is similar in keeping Sperry A3 autopilot and radar Altitude.
After ww2, conversions and upgrades included mostly Navigation components, including VOR and CRS similar to Piedmont and TWA Airlines. The overhead still contains two simple Bendix ADFs that were frequently changed to dual VOR. Original production and conversion plaques are at lower left.
USAF Special Ops flew similar AC47 over Vietnam. These were completely rebuilt using three 7.62 mm miniguns. In 2018, approximately 400 DC3s/C47s are still flying – 80 years after first flown.
