We don't have actuators on the aft array but Carter has three sets of struts. Pictured above the panels are set for use as a handrail for the sun deck. They can be manually lowered to a midway position or to lay flat on the deck for better energy collection during the day.
love the ingenuity shown here way to go Carter.
