My drywall only has one stud for the center. Will it be fine using only screws for the upper/lower middle of the mount? It’s a 50 in tv so not too heavy and it might work. Still want to ask, just in case null

The hardware included is massive! I'd think if you put only top center and bottom center in, and TV isn't constantly moved around, you'd be okay. I mounted a 43" and it is SO solidly bolted to the wall, I'd think there is room for you to do that and still be solid. You COULD get a piece of metal pipe strap at LOWES and put it between the top and bottom screws to add a third hole in between them.

I would recommend a single stud mount instead of this one for your situation here. I would not recommend mounting this mount into only one stud it made to be mounted into two to be able to support the weight of the mount and the TV. I'd recommend checking out our BMF320-B1 single stud mount. Thanks, - Haydn @ SANUS
