Nah, not at all. That didn't help us at all. Even if we could orient while stacking it'd be useless unless we could protect the stack. Protection was the fault at Annapolis and we did not have a backup device with us.
What did matter was the aluminum frame to support our stack of 4 and protect it.
The orientors we used for orienting were moved onto this frame and instead were used to hold the stack. It was a tedious backup plan developed late in the build but it was simple to do... too bad it took 6 hours the first day to implement... taking stuff apart is incredibly tedious when it's all hex nuts...
