Indeed it is - I have no clue about RV life, that is the reason why I am bothering experienced people here. About wattage: there are only four solar panels exposed to sun, when unit is in folded state (100 Wt per panel: 4 x 100 = 400 Wt); and twelve panels resp., when the unit is in unfolded...

Thanks a lot for your answers. I do appreciate your attention. The unit don't need any space below it and might be placed just on the surface of the roof. Chassis, drives and wiring fit in the box with specified dimensions. There is enough space inside the unit for a hatch on the roof,  but you...

I want to understand: is it necessary for RV travelers? Do you experience a lack of a electric power in your adventures? Or the unit is useless in this area?

You are right, the wind  is the thing to be accounted. The unit is equipped with wind gauge and will be auto retracted if wind exceed 5 points on Beaufort scale (about 25 mph). Real tests might decrease the index. I'm working on reducing the weight of the chassis to find a balance between...

Where is the place for battery ?

400 Wt - when in retracted state,and only 4 panels in work (MPVES0.jpg). 1200 Wt -when in unfolded state while on park (MPVES1.jpg). I mean, is any need to obtain more than 1 kWt of energy? Some heater, or water clean system or e-bikes or something?

I am developing a project of a mobile solar power plant with an active tracker for a van, which is supposed to be used for charging drones in field conditions, and looking for an area in which this development will also be useful. I want to ask people with experience in using a RV: will this...
