You misunderstand. It's more like evolution's been a long time coming. The ebay link I posted explains a little of how old the idea is. Henry Ford didn't disign the Ford GT.
That rc bird is the most graceful I have seen. I think due to the extra bend in the wing which I think is flex designed into to it, giving more stability and lift. So I don't think the wing is fully articulated, just an advanced variation of the reciprocating action.
