Honestly I don't see why a perfect robot needs to have an FCS. At the top levels of play the field is going to be deep enough to run a 3 cycler alliance(which as we well know, can pretty reliably clear out the feeder station). In a shallow field you can beat strong alliances regardless of FCS. If you still decide to run an FCS, there should be no reason why it has to be tall. If you are only FCSing you will promote defense. A much better style is a run and gun style similar to that of 469.
