I think the more consistent scenario for this RC-centric strategy is the 5-stack, given the 6 stacks of 5 behind the glass and partners who are more likely to be able to stack on a 5 than they are on a 6.
I can say that reliably controlling a RC by only touching its lowest 6" (for the 6-stack) is pretty tough after the RC is in the air. Doable, but tough. I know that our prototypes have been much more reliable if they're closer to the RC's center of mass, which is about 16" off the ground. It's still early though.
