Swing and a miss. But one strike out of the rest aint bad. (Mustard gas isn't named for any relation with the condiment or plant seeds.)
As for other stuff Paper... Balance? I do not see any reason this thing needs to behave like a skateboard, that is a whim of the current design. A miiltary usage one would not be based on a tilting platform for control. It would be based on a more solid footing. If it had a tilting platform at all, it would be one controlled by electronics to make it steadier, more controllable for the rider. The goal wouldn't be for performing stunts or neat tricks so the maneuverability would be less important.
As for controls, I definitely think having a vertical stick in front would solve most any issues, giving an additional point of balance and a way to hang on during acceleration. The wired grip would HAVE to go no matter what, it's completely ill suited for practical uses. The best ergonomics I can think of right now would be a wide-motion thumb hat/stick for throttle and turning, so your fingers could be used only for hanging on.
