My Dragon M1A2 Abrams SEP came with a warped hull when I put it on a flat surface I saw that one side isn't flat on the surface. How do I fix this

Hi Antonio,

I'd say it depends on how much its warped. One technique is to immerse it in warm water for a few minutes then slowly straighthen it. You may need to do this more than once to get it to the desired form. Be very patient and careful -- I broke a barrel once as I was rushing it.

Cheers,

Tat
