Why does it look like a toy when it flies? There’s something about he way it moves when it changes direction or lands that makes it not look as big as it should.

I thought it was a scaled prototype first time I saw the video.

The flight jerkiness probably comes from the flight controller not being super polished, and also the aircraft being piloted remotely by a drone pilot, so the pilot doesn't have the same feedback an onboard pilot would have.
