I wonder why not mount the panels close to the edge, like in the one photo ??
There would be much less chance of shading from objects on the roof, and no chance of the panels shading each other if or when tilted,.....like will for sure happen in the one photo above. It would really be defeating a purpose if you were to tilt a panel, only to be shading the panel next to it.
I doubt I will ever tilt ours. It might be different if I camped over the winter for weeks at a time. But for us they do the job flat. I would rather have them a little further from the edge to have less chance of branches bothering them.
At today's cost of panels just add one more and you won't need to get on your roof again.
