Please help.

I made this boat car hybrid and there was a problem with offroad driving. This problem was that on bumby terrain the prop would sometimes hit the ground and explode. To avoid this I put a hinge rotator in so that when its in car mode the prop faces up. This worked fine until it got in the water where it moved backwards insted of forwards. I tried everything including inverting the propulsion direction but still no luck. Please help!

    1: change pitch control to manual.
    2: throttle governor = on
    3: Pitch = neutral
    4: Pitch range scale = 70%
    5: scroll to bottom section of settings (propeeler pitch) and set input to TRIM, invert = yes.
    once throttled up, use trim lever (the right side vtol) for foward or reverse
