I'm surprised that no one else has answered.

I've never built an electric profile (or electric CL -- just various electric RC ships).  Looking at Bob's mount, though, I think that you want to build out the left side of the fuselage, so that at least 3/4 of the outer diameter of the ring is solidly glued to the fuselage structure.  That should provide a similar level of strength to the mounting as you'd get in a full-fuselage plane, and then Bob's mount will work as intended.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.
