SkyBug.2
is not just another 'flying toy', she is a traditional
model aircraft. Designed for those of us who still love
to build with balsa wood, or want to learn how. And that
means that SkyBug.2 is repairable too!
SkyBug.2 can take off from short grass, paths or is hand
launched with ease.
Big fun in the smallest of fields and looks great in the
air.
