thefro526: I have an idea for you. If you're arm is servoed, why don't you tell it to go up a little even before it's told to go up?
If you're arm is not servoed, why don't you have your arm go up for 1 second, so it won't be high enough to mess anything up if you don't want it to knock off, and then if you do want it to knock off, have it continue going up. It should get rid of the problem you're experiencing with getting a signal to the robot right away... we had the same problem.
