That is it, what you do is don't set a depth in the passes tab, what you do is set the Maximum ramp stepdown to your max depth of cut you want the ramping angel set between 2 to 4 degress is fine and turn leads & transitions off by unticking all the tick box's.
Doing this causes a constant engagement between the tool and wood as the tool is ramping into the material from the top to bottom, the hight only changes if you have tabs and if you do you set them to triangular, it is better of the cutter, machine and material if you do.
Yes, a nice sharp tool and slowing down around corners will work better, than not.
The only other thing is gluing some scrap wood on the material with the grain in the correct direction to act as a backer.
It is just the grain direction doing it.
With a manual router, you have to cut it in the correct direction otherwise it will rip the corners off and the bit of material out of your hand.
