A few weeks ago we modified our Starlink standard antenna and installed it flat on the roof of our four-wheel drive motorhome (MAN TGM 18.320 4×4 with Blissmobil 16ft mobile home), see Starlink - Fixed installation of the standard antenna (Part 2). On the first try (using the Star Mount "Flat Mount Low Profile for Starlink Dishy") there was damage relatively quickly, presumably due to the poor watertightness of the proprietary Starlink connectors. In this context, we exchanged information intensively with Brandon from Starmount-Systems and then modified our approach - since then we have been using a waterproof RJ-45 connector, as you can see in the post linked above. Starmount-Systems has recently started offering a version of its Star-Mount Flat Mount with a waterproof RJ-45 connector:

If we were to install the antenna flat at this point in time, we would definitely choose this new version of the star mount.
