Me too, Renogy glue mounts.
You can also add one screw in the two front mounts of each panel if it makes you feel better. That is, screws would add strength from coming off when driving down the highway at 60 mph.

Although I currently have 3 solid panels, I’m now a proponent of going with the flex panels for ease of install and limited weight.
Sure, they only last 10yrs in the sun (vs 25 years for solid panels), but who really cares.
If you still have this RV in 10 years, you can always replace.
