Distance Grab (Player flies up or is pushed by object grabbed)

I know there's a lot of people having problems with this and I've followed many tutorials that try to fix this issue, but I cannot for the life of me fix it. I've tried a lot of things and spent a lot of time on this and I just cant figure it out.
I've tried the following layer abstraction in this tutorial (doesn't work):

I've also tried this:

If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.

If you look at the comment I left on that second video, you'll see a solution.  You can also look at my tutorial on github.  Basically, you set up a physic collision matrix.

Corysia, thank you so much. I tried this approach several time and I couldn't get it to work. The key I believe was to "Set the layer of the OVRPlayerController as Player. Do not recursively mark all child objects. We only want the top object to be on the Player layer." I think this is where I failed the first time.
