As many have already said, I find it is essential to let the glue stick dry thoroughly, overnight at least, to eliminate tissue detachment from undercamber ribs. Before I figured this out it was hit and miss. With some brands of glue stick, nothing seems to help though. UHU permanent is one of the best ones I've tried, 3M being a close second. I haven't had good luck with store brands.

Having used glue stick exclusively since 2004 I have found that the important thing when selecting a glue stick is that it is "
permanent". All the brands of permanent glue stick seem to work well. A glue stick labeled "archival" is even better. They will stick well even when covering wet with silkspan. Anything labeled with the word "school" on it is unusable. Those are designed so that the glue can be washed out of the kid's clothes. The tissue will detach on the first dewy morning at the flying field.
