It says those are to help it move up and down. Not for stabilizing.
Queso:
If you have noticed, Those are actually three separate balloons on the bottom for left and right stability. Then you have the turbines out front as well for forward and back. (Totally just head canon.) I remember back in the early days we were thinking up some lore for the ship's existence. We came up with the idea that some spoiled little rich prince wanted a balloon on the bottom and so cause his family had the money they put the best engineers money could buy on the job, making them do essentially the impossible for this little brat. In game I think it has a much nicer version that some royalty wanted to see the stars at night from his airship.

That's not how it works. Unless they have a super advanced computer that automatically calculates a side starting to learn and depressurizes the balloon on the leaning side.

You know, I'm beginning to realize how more and more true that image is.
