This seems arse-backwards, I'd always go to the drop for more stability. YMMV.
Anyway, the obvious solution is to spend a shed load of cash upgrading to 808 Firecrests, they are supposed to be more stable and generate forward thrust in some crosswind conditions (from about 13° to 22° yaw, pretty impressive), apparently the first non-disc wheel to do so in Tour mag's independent testing (HED claim negative drag for the Stinger 9 in their own tests).
