Do you have any advice on how much support is necessary on this connection?
You can see we actually had quite substantial support in the form of turnbuckles.

This must not be in the .step we posted?

It's hard to quantity exactly what framing needs to be there, which is the same for most FRC frames. A decent, solid triangle is usually never a bad choice though.
