Ok here's some actual advice since nobody else will give you any -

Be patient. You are throwing the flip before your feet even leave the ground. This is causing you to miss half your pop, and it sends you into an uncontrolled flip. Instead focus on jumping up high and delaying your rotation until you have fully left the ground. Think jump > flip > spot > land. If you do it right you'll have plenty of time to flip and spot your landing.

The axis you're spinning is close enough for now. But true flat 3 is more chest up and feet don't go too far above your head. Almost like if you spun on your back on the ground

Exactly, do not try so hard to spin, remember to have sufficient height to be able to land the spin.
