I finally found the clip that matches a leak from 2019, and the before/after on the craft is what got me
Back in 2019 I saved a grainy still from a forum that shut down, and last night I found a 4K clip on a reupload channel that looks like the exact same craft. The hull in the old still was smooth and silver, but in the new clip it looks pitted and matte gray, and the guy claims it changed after a single 8 minute hover test in his backyard in Tucson. If that weathering is real, does anyone know what kind of material could go from polished to pitted that fast, or is this just a filter trick?
