"further box gussetting of the LCA pickups."

This was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the first pics in this thread. The potential loads/angles and the current LCA mounting is a concern.

Also, if you note the pics TKR posted, there is a lot of triangulation in their design. I'm not sure if your design needs it, but it could be something to think about as you test it. Just for reference, I'm mostly talking about the view in the second pic in the first post of this thread.

You've done a great job so far, as I know it's not easy to make something like this. Just gotta keep in mind the consequences of failure before you release the product.
