Hello Jeremy.
All is right Jeremy, but your solutions are very complicated as for Airboat. After a lot of tests we concluded that we must to focus on weight of model, and lower the center of gravity as well as increase propeller performance, even it would be associated with designing new propellers especially for Airboats for example:

But this is our way of thinking about Airboats.
Sorry for our english, but i think you understand what we try to tell.
