[RE-wrenches] pole mount manufacturer w pic

[Ray]

I'd be very nervous about how much deflection you could see at the 
corners in high winds.  If the frame twists enough you could have 
modules break, or gaps between modules open up enough to lose the 
midclips and let modules loose.  I would take a look at MT Solar's 
multi-pole system, that starts really locking things in as you go big.  
I've never worked on a single pole mount bigger than 16 modules that I 
felt good about.
