Just correcting some vagueness from the above comment.
Most tailwheel airplanes can do wheel or 3-point (stall) landings. For example, I've done both in the Decathlon, a very common tailwheel airplane.
Also, I watched the video and although the builder is an intelligent guy, you're supposed to know the stall speed of your airplane. Many of the speed indications are based on that.
It looks like he should finish the test flight program.
Note that many homebuilders don't allow resale (instead they take a chainsaw to the spar for liability reasons.)
Read about John Denver's fatal homebuilt resale accident to see why.
