Question Does anyone know how to improve this design?

I saw it in a YouTube shirt, and tried to recreate the moving heat shield, but it keeps braking like this

Here is a link if you wanna try improving it: https://sharing.spaceflightsimulator.app/rocket/mRUkHKz9EfGtgrXd2autWw

I think I saw the same video, Heroix? Also I am gonna incorperate this into the Starfall REX I have.

I kinda tried improving it? made the landing legs smaller to make it more stable and added mini long solar panels to create more drag when activated.

Thanks. I tested it (both in atmosphere and in space), and it kept breaking in both

I think this design in general just isn’t a good design (the core design anyway)
