    The Skua (named after the Australian bird), is the creation of talented designer Kye Mc Donald from Australia.

    It is a speed demon that will easily outperform standard combat wings. It features a quick roll rate and excellent inverted performance.

    The Skua will catch everyone's attention at the field, it is designed to stand out from the crowd.

    The Skua is a DS (Dynamic Soaring) speed demon. it carried energy very well and is stable on the backside of the slope.

    "The flight characteristics of the Skua knocked my socks off! Not only did it fly well in the light lift, it gained altitude. Controls were very responsive without being twitchy... Fantastic energy retention and the seeming ability of the Skua to respond to your thoughts before you apply the controls to your radio make this an excellent DS machine." (LSSS online review)
