I brought my DX3 on a plane as my carry-on. I put it in the original box. I had no problems getting it on the plane, however the guy who was running the scanner recognized it as a model car radio.
Another guy I know tried bringing his futaba onto a different flight. The guy was freaked out because he thought it was a gun, and didn't want to let him bring it on the plane until he could prove that it didn't shoot anything. However, he had the radio loose in a bag... no manual/magazine or anything like that. That probably didn't help.
