The invention relates to a serial data transfer in a numerically controlled control system to update an output value of the control system. At least six dual polarized antennas are positioned on the platform for transmitting and receiving signals substantially in each of the at least six sectors, respectively. In addition to the feedback signals from the powered functions, signals from a bale length sensor and a ground speed sensor are also coupled to the electronic control unit for use in controlling the powered functions. The surrogate space may be a construct of one or more spaces. The fracturable nut and stud construction is configured to fail under torsional load prior to the structural parts failure.
