Watching the video I immediately thought of the SNL skit: ▶ this video If I am understanding what I saw, for all the work on the canards, the propellant runs out immediately leaving it to tumble in air, That being said, I agree that it's a prototype and all that entails. I agree that it can (and probably will be) improved upon.
This reminds me of SNL's Undercover Boss Starkiller Base ~ Kylo Ren ▶ this video Kylo Ren as Matt: "He said Kylo Ren has an 8-pack. That Kylo Ren is shredded."
Dude 2FA straight up sucks! Undercover Boss Star Killer Base Edition ▶ this video 2FA is a weak link, it's been proven it's easy to social engineer access to your phone account/number. Once someone has your phone they will receive all your 2FA notifications and once they can reset your email password with it they have the keys to the castle. Plus if you lose your phone, then you're locked out, without your printable one time use keys, that you probably didn't print. There has to be something better.
