Any mount should work. Yes, you will have to make allowances for mounting it. RV walls are thin. You might look at a locking swing arm mount that you could mount to a cabinet end. I wouldn't trust any fasteners such as expansion bolts. You can use a stud finder to find a structural member. If it is an interior wall, the "studs" are undersized and not standard spacing. The outside structural members might be aluminum and more secure. I'm sure that someone with more knowledge will chime in.
Good luck and welcome aboard.
When I mounted my 22 or 24 LED model in our old coach, it was so light that the wall board itself was plenty strong enough. That was years ago and solid until sold last year. Only thing was, I needed to slightly mod the mount for more angle, so to make the viewing better, when laying in bed.
I just mounted a new 32" at home and the weight was just 9 lbs, so, we're talking picture frame hanging, here.
