Phil, if you do a few dry runs you should be fine. As you know, eclipse orchestrator was the controller I used for my 12 day shoot and I only had 3 hiccups due to loss of USB control in that time. Just make sure you have good quality USB cables, adequate power, maybe invest in a small usb GPS for timing (eclipse orchestrator works fine with these and the're accurate to 1 second), leave enough time between shots for usb adjustments, or use a serial cable for remote triggering for maximum frame rate.
If you've done enough test runs you can sit back, relax, let it do it's thing and enjoy the show
