Latest I read this morning was that what Iran was showing might be a fake. No idea if that's true but the story of Iran "gaining control" and "guiding it down" seems fishy. I can't imagine the kind of security and encryption used to communicate and control that drone. It seems FAR more likely that the Iranians jammed the signals and the drone did some version of falling out of the sky.
Perhaps we're looking at a 'repaired' version of wreckage. One analyst said it was curious that the landing gear were covered and that some welds or joints were the wrong color. (Working from memory here)
