The four main plates are only held rigidly along the outside. The reason for
the peg connectors along the back on the underneath is to attach the four
angled plates surrounding the engines, the main plates aren't connected to
the back beam at all. Hopefully that makes sense, if you have a picture of
the rear there's the flat bit to which the engines atach and the the four
angled bits, those four are attached only to the main plates via a series of
peg attachments.
