No.
From recorded data in another CAPS event, the plane under canopy with full engine power simply rotates like a carousel. Unlike a paraglider, the motor is not powerful enough and the canopy is round and too large.
The first few frames of one video seems to suggest that this plane was moving in the direction of the engine slightly but turning like the earlier documented event.
Cheers
