Not sure how many Discus 2 and Ventus 2 fuses I made, but none of them have a glass turtle deck.
Radio antenna located in the fin which is glass, except the Nimbus 4 where it is located in the rudder.
This however doesn't help your issue

Has anyone tried putting a transponder antenna like the T2glued to the inside the turtle deck? does the antenna require a downward view? 250 watts of RF too close to your head? This would make install on an ASW27 MUCH simpler than a fin or stinger on the outside behind the gear, not to mention more aerodynamic.

Can't you put it in the nose of the 27? I mounted an L2 there on my 26, ahead of the rudder pedals. The nose it also not carbon, it's kevlar and glass. I believe the antenna wants to be vertical for the correct polarization, that might add to the problems putting it in the turtle deck. I have the L2 transponder antenna on one side and the Flarm A on the other, works fine..

I think the '27 is different from the '26 there and does not have the clear spots in the nose.
