Kongoh is possible on walrus+ob but that doesn't mean it's a smart choice. Having super high output on a low drain AC is overkill. You can easily accomplish the same thing with G91/ananda plus the added bonus of way less heat. Lotus is good too since core/leg breaking won't hurt you quite as much and walrus's low drain jives well with it. All it takes for kongoh to fail is one mistake. People will abuse the OB charge periods with missiles and canons. Cooler setups allow boosting while charging to prevent weapon heat from killing you. Also, I prefer EOS+LN85 for OB hovers. It makes it much easier to get an AP lead and maintain it while giving similar mobility to /UL+walrus. No hangars will often mean you have to play timeout games though.
Having energy coincide with overheating is bad logic btw. You don't need the game to tell you when to stop OBing; you should already know. Hover gliding lets you use very little en to begin with. You don't even need kongoh's full cap to go places.
Any hover that isn't OB centric (HM) should use lotus with ananda or G69 with ananda/linden.
You don't always have to play super speed either. You can use a high defense build like this:
eye3/UA/Lemur/LN85/f73h/lotus/ananda/Shade/R3/69m/rm3
Weapon arms suck. Use the MG arms+E2 or 8shot BZ arms on a rusher hover for your gimmick win. Everything else is too difficult.
