It does not appear to be stabilized. In looking at the construction of the Peloruses on Fleet Submarines during WWII I can't see any stabilization mechanism.

I am assuming you mean some automatic mechanical way of stabilizing the TBT.

The TBT was able to tilt. I am sure that an experienced TBT operator could manually compensate to some level for the vertical movement of the submarine platform.
