I wonder if they’re using a steerable parachute to put it on a predictable heading. In the rocketry hobby we use the drogue/main deployment to keep from having to walk so far to collect a rocket. Naturally, someone put an acrobatic parachute, gps, microcontroller, and some actuators in an airframe to fly a model rocket back to the launch rail. It worked pretty well.
