I apologize for not being to post a critique sooner. 
Anyway...
The design is pretty useable, but I'm thinking it wont last very long, either. It all starts with the whole weapon and generator setup. You've got two energy weapons out there, and only the Lotus to hold it all in, without the EC optional part. Plus, you've got OB (granted, it's in the Helios so OB is actually good and efficient, but still). There's not going to be a lot left for the main guns. For the remainder of the time after OB use you're left boost hopping, striking in midrange with missiles (which are good on this frame, BTW). Add to that the fact that the Hollow isn't very accurate at all, no matter how low it drains.
It takes patience to use this design, but like I said, it's useable.
If you want to go even further, I'd suggest G91 on a standard core, so that all of your energy (well, most of it anyway) is dedicated to firing the Hollow and chasing down opponents.
