Actually, it improves the situation. Before I got the 2x10 to compliment my 500c, I used a kick back stand and I found it difficult to see and make adjustments. With the 500c sitting on top of the 2x10, it raises it up so it is easier to see and reach. My only concern with the controls on top is something falling on and breaking breaking them.I can see it being more of a issue with a stack.
