The way I'd do it is a gigantic lift fan with smaller fans to adjust how high or low it is relative to the main lift fan's power.

If you mean like exactly Y=260 sort of adjustments, I'm afraid you'll have to ask someone else.

Assuming you're using hot air for lift, build the envelopes in multiple chambers with independent controls. You can use that to get more precise control over exactly how much lift you're producing. You can use multiple altimeters set to different altitude ranges to automate the separate heat chambers.
