Guys, the stab mechanism mounted on the bulkhead seems to be the exact same system used successfully for years on the Tam Super Hornet. However, the Tam control mechanism was mounted to a solid plywood bulkhead. This bulkhead seems to be some sort of HC or or foam sandwiched material. I would warn about eventual compression and loosening of the attachment bolts We had it occur overtime with the Hornets.
