We are debating whether we should use this approach or if we should simply have the RoboCoach drive the robot. I've seen success with both.

Agreed, providing that
1. The stack approach is deemed illegal (which really is the heart of my question)
2. The IR sensor is positioned such that it can be sent a signal from the robocoach station while the robot is downfield.
3. The IR system works under the hostile IR conditions that can be at the event.

What kind of range/reliability did you have with that approach? I'm assuming that you had commands like "Drive forward for N loops" and repeatedly had to press the button.
