Thanks for the update, I have no criticisms, I understand it is a work in progress and good things take time.
IMHO, I was recently part of a project where I was asked to look into the possibility. There are no surviving animals that flew like Pterosaurs and it is very different to infer how they flew. Gradually, research is building up (eg. models showing that a quadrupedal take-off jump worked for most species - not a running or cliff based take-off), but it will still be several years before it is feasible.
