its a split cut kinda round at the front of the cutouts and pointy at the back of the cutouts. Only cutouts are in the middle

If you go over to the LEFTHANDER R/C site, can you match it up with the pictures of the spring steel t-plates there ?

That works too ! :thumbsup:

Here is what the Super Soft looks like -- if yours doesn't match, then it is stiffer than this one.

identical to the medium, but without the cutouts by the middle screw hole where it mounts to the pod.
