Based on the telemetry values, the satellite does appear to have some form of active attitude control. BG2BHC mentioned on Twitter that they are trying to reduce the spin.

I made a QSO via the satellite on Friday night, but with the rapid QSB, it was very difficult to decode more than a syllable or two at a time.
