The 'Gimbal' UFO: Marik Claims "New Findings" Falsify Prosaic Explanations

About #2, there is this too.

You have more rotation in the clouds than in the stitch from the real video, because the katana shape (from misaligned horizons) is from forcing the dero, versus decreasing elevation angle.

I and Zaine have proposed that this is from slight downward camera panning in the original video, which straightens cloud motion angle through the FOV. Could be garbage, but I haven't seen any alternative explanation.

In order for any explanation of such things to be definitive, you need to know where the clouds are.

The simple way to demonstrate that any theory works is to model it in 3D. I've been on-and-off (mostly off) messing with getting Gimbal working in a more flexible framework in Sitrec to try out such things.
