I’m not going to install tilting or ridged panels, as I’m not interested in climbing on my roof. They will be flexible, and glued to the roof.
I went with a flexible panel mainly because of the light weight. I have two panels mounted on the side of my coach which can be lifted off and attached to extension cables. The flexible panel replaced a glass panel that was a bit cumbersome to handle.
