Skid-to-turn

Instead commands to the control surfaces are mixed to produce the maneuver in the desired direction.

For instance, a vehicle flying horizontally may be turned in the horizontal plane by the application of rudder controls to place the body at a sideslip angle relative to the airflow.

This sideslip flow then produces a force in the horizontal plane to turn the vehicle's velocity vector.

[1] The benefit of the skid-to-turn maneuver is that it can be performed much quicker than a coordinated turn.

The disadvantage occurs if the vehicle has greater maneuverability in one body plane than another.
