The first hard point we made on the Keel is this “house” shaped one on the pilot’s side for front control rod bracket. It’s 5-3/4″ at the peak with a 5″ tall by 5.5″ wide. It’s is attached on the inside of the keel with micro, with a small fillet or sand the edges (we sanded the edges smooth), and covered with four plies of bid. The remaining keel hard points (on the fore bottom pilot side) are preinstalled on the quick build fuselage.
