-- I have a question, is it possible to put an explosive device some where in a plane that would cause the pilot to lose controls but not blow the plane up? --

Yes. Might take more than one device, and maybe not literally an "explosion," but all sorts of sabotage is possible, that results in eventual loss of control.

Picking this incident, this aircraft has deicing systems. Cut air lines or pull the fuse(s) or cut the wires, and no deicing.
