Hi Alan,
The lights are my design that I had machined to test for a 10k lumen light.
The rear thrusters will rotate 45 degrees each left and right. The aluminum
shaft is seated in a UHMW collar in two locations and has a locking
bellhorn that will tie the two thrusters together. The black extension is
designed  to add up tow three additional sensors and air compensation, so I
don't have to tap the thruster. I will be using a Linear actuator to drive
the rotation of the pair of thrusters.

Best Regards,
David Colombo
