Yep, the Aegea, which in part evolved from the Mantis, did show up at about the same time. However, it hasn't captured the fancy of a large number of 2M hotshots the way the Duck has done. Actually, until this year the Organic held sway in 2M even more than the Duck. The Aegea and Duck are sort of at opposite poles of design philosophy, and the Organic is somewhat in between. Over time, practical results will sort out which is best. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
