Interesting Gimble is in there - much of what is 'interesting' about this video has been debunked by Mick West: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mick_West

"Debunk" lacks scientific significance as the object remains anomalous and unidentified. It infers that this footage is of a "known" object, and any further intellectual inquiry should be suspended.

I think this paper is far more useful to discuss:

Debunk Just means to show an assertation as false or expose to ridicule. The idea that the movement is not linked to the movement of the gimbal is shown as incorrect. It is still unidentified, but as I said, much of what is 'interesting' about the video no longer a mystery.
