Do we simply add the cheese manually when we move the

Yeah, you're overthinking it a bit. She needs to inspect the vehicle between flights anyway, so that is when we plan to distribute the cheese. You can just place the sample in a suitable payload bay, tape it to the shock cord, etc... just like the cheese we fly in gouda lofting. I'll clarify that in the rules. Unless you want to add a remote controlled arm, which would be pretty cool and I'm sure garner a few extra points.
