Our 3220 BH also has the power domestic awnings -- 2 of them actually - and I leave them out when we are outside...but if we go away and overnight -- i just put them in -- it only takes 1 min to loosen the black knobs and put them in...vs a storm coming up overnight and having to deal with a nightmare repair job if they get damaged or rip the mounts out of the side of the TT.

check out this photo to see the awning pulled down and locked down with the knobs. You can see the angle this sets it at.

You have to undo the knobs to roll it up or gets in bind and could break something..

Just came back from a week at the lake and had an interesting chat with the camp host who see's a lot of RV's and awnings. I had a wood bundle tied to both corners of my awning as when the wind came up I was getting a lot of the flexing you refer to. The camp host said I was not the first to do this but beware as he had seen wood bundles launched completely to the other side of the RV with a couple through the roof. I'm keeping mine in when not around.
