A weird one.
It started as a regular bagged Custom kit that sat in t' direct sun a little too long. Well, blow me down! T' nose cone be melted and bent. Well, blow me down! I bought t' kit.
T' body tube was cut into angled wedges and glued together like t' Fliskits ACME Spitfire. Arrr! I renamed it WARPED.
A B6-4 pushed it t' at least 600'. I thought it would drift into t' trees. Arrr! I landed in t' adjacent field. Avast, me proud beauty! Recovered and retired.
