Has anyone added structural members to there instrument paned? Maybe it's just me, but after adding a proposed  full complement of  IFR instruments and radios, it seams a bit unstable. Looks like it needs more support in the center area.

I am cutting a hole in the subpanel and rimming it with angle like the plans suggest.  Then I am going to support the back of the radio stack from there as well.  I know some people like to put in stiffeners and then cut the panel to allow it to be removed in pieces instead of the whole panel at once.  Angle or thick stock like the panel itself would probably do the trick there.  I think finding a way to help support the heavy instruments behind the panel is probably the best way to relieve stress on the panel.  With all that leverage, it would probably be lighter to do it this way as well.

That's what I was thinking, maybe a brace to the radio stack.
