The gravity propulsion drive is more difficult to control with heavier vehicles. Although it can still keep a vehicle well off the ground, the speed and maneuverability of heavy class vehicles is limited. Despite apparent simplicity and grace, vehicles that utilize the gravity propulsion drive requires a skilled driver to handle the vehicle properly. The pilot must also take terrain into account as uneven or broken terrain causes the the vehicle to dip, rise or not allow the vehicle to hover or move effectively in these types of terrain.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''page 185''</ref> Although the boost feature can propel vehicles at fast speeds, it does limit maneuverability and renders weapons system inoperable until the vehicle comes out of boost.
