Does Solar Power have to be installed perm?

I have seen some people set up solar panels next to their camper at a site where there is no power hook up at all. But now that I'm researching solar power for my RV, it seems like all need to be wired permanently. Is it possible to just pop them up and hook them to the battery when I want it and then store them away when I don't want them?

yup. that's what we do. disadvantage is finding a place to store them and they can grow legs. and you don't get any charging while driving down the road.
Advantage, you can park in the shade and still have solar.

you do need a charge controller just like permanent mount units, but that should be mounted near the batteries.
