FWIW, I must be lucky, because I've never had any problem w/ WBBM real 12 and I use a 91XG for that one, at 46 mi.
Yes, the mast will be more susceptible to sway.
Additionally, you'll want to achieve your height, below the rotor.
Keep the stub above the rotor, as short as possible, w/o interfering w/ your coax loop.
