Default Incubating royal eggs

Does anyone have any info on preferred methods particularly one requiring no medium and eggs sitting on eggcrate inside small rubs or similar.Have heard of this method but would like to hear from anyone who has tried it.

Thanks

Same question, do you use water in the bottom to keep the humidity up and do you ever get probs with condensation on the lid when using this method? thanks
