Don’t hurt yourself too much, with that Palm Slap, but here is a picture from a couple of years back. Let me know if you need any suggestions and or help. I always do a spread sheet, with part numbers n such, when I do projects like this.
I wanted a “clean” roof' result, for wind resistance and roof top shadows, so I did it this way. I think I achieved that goal, here.
Oh, I can still raise the vent in the bath too. I left room between the solar panels to allow walking, safely, between the panels. As well as tilting them, if desired. After one winter use, of 2 panels (200w) I determined I only needed to add 1 more panel, to negate the need to ever tilt these panels. As is, I have never tilted these panels, during winter use. With limited winter sun, I am able to reach Float stage, during each sunny/partly cloudy day with 240 AmpH battery bank. (Plans to swap out the AGMs for 300 AmpH AGMs, this summer).

Sorry for the hi-jack, but would you explain your method for securing the Unistrut to the rails? Did you bolt it directly to the rail, or did you use a bracket of some sort.
