First open water test

Our duck was ready to get its feet wet, so to speak. The first test went pretty much as expected - stability issues related with anything above light throttle meant that additional stability was needed. The thrust vector means that the duck wants to tip forwards. The solution is either to add front stabilisers or to adjust the angle of the props. I'm going to build some front skis to keep it upright and steady tonight while Dale works on an option to modify the angle of the drive-shafts.
