The Karearea Kea is a freestyle frame from the famous creator of the Karearea Talon. The Kea has two "wings" that add drag and make the quad have longer hang time. But wasn't the entire point of the Karearea's vertical arms to reduce drag??? Let's take a closer look at this frame, and answer the question: are the Karearea Kea's "wings" just a gimmick? Or do they really increase hang time?

If you want to see for yourself, here's a video where I flew two packs with, and two packs without the "wings":
