Make a long skinny piece that goes lengthwise along the vertical piece of chassis, so you have like an inch on both sides of the cut line. The bracing you did there wont cut it.
I got the longer braces on the inside, guess hard to see in pic cause the electronics. I was going add some CF braces to the outter though soon. It's held up for practice 2 heats and a main so far as is. Chassis is even too. Measured from servo screws to tail and both side measured same.
