Went out and looked at the toppers on my coach this morning. You may be on point with your thumping noise. If you look at the attached photo when my slides are in there is a screw that goes from the topper head and rests against an oval plate on the side of the coach. It appears the purpose of the screw is to keep tension on the topper roller so it doesn't bounce around and to keep tension on the topper fabric while travelling. I can see that if this screw was not in contact with the oval plate there would be the potential for it to knock on the plate as wind while travelling comes impacts the roller and topper fabric.

Not sure if your setup is the same but here is a picture of mine.
