Hello and thank you for checking out my call for help! This will fly as it is with full up trim and playing with the throttle but it's rough so it can only go so fast and barely gain altitude but beyond that and the main issue I'm having is I'm not sure what I could do to get this to take off from the water so that's why I'm asking you all for help this evening. I got it to go 124mph max but because of how I have the engines, it digs itself into the water too much to takeoff. You are free to do whatever you may need to get this operational. Good luck to everyone who may try this out!

I'm deleting my post. It was supposed to be unlisted.
@BurkeEnterprise I just uploaded the newest version, Hope you like it!
@Knight your very much welcome! It's nice to see you putting more and more effort into your builds! Tag me once it's done!
@BurkeEnterprise Sorry for the delay I had to go out. I just loaded it up and flew around, it did stick to the water for awhile but I did get it up off the water. Thank you again for your help.
Here you go!

@Knight the do-X was barely able to gain altitude. So, good job! I'll try and fix the takeoff problem.
@BurkeEnterprise You helped me with my last plane that didn't like working so what do you say to helping me out with this one. It can't take off the water and I'm stuck. Can you try to get it to take off?
