But since you are concerned about this, fix your receiver in place and then run one antenna to one side of the fuselage and the other one to the other side. Hold them in place with a piece of clear tape.

You absolutely do not need to run any part of your 2.4 antenna outside of the fuselage.
Over Thinking always happens to me when the directions are lacking...

Several people have already told me that 90 degrees is what they need to be.

This is the best idea I've been able to come up with so far:
