If your Conway Challenger is anything like the many other Conway TT's then the Jupiter will much the same. Cabanon produce under licence to Conway so they are very similar, just that your Jupiter is a BIG tent!

We used ours for the first time last August and when we packed up we left all of the awning zipped on (like my parents used to with their Conway Carmargue) so it is just a matter of adding the poles and then pull the canvas over.

Like with any TT just don't rush and get it all out a once, add each section of poles, advance the canvas and then move on to the next section. The main problem I have is that being short I need a small step ladder to tend to the centre poles etc!

Good luck.
