Hi all,

Newby here but not to camping.

Anyway, bought the VRX500S from here the other day and wondered if anyone else had one.  Are they easy to erect etc ?? Any advise etc on this tent would be highly appreciated.

Thanks all

As they are primarily a tunnel tent they are going to be relatively easy to pitch. When you have laid out your fly sheet and got the poles in place peg out the back corners.   Once you have got the pins in the back pole guy the back so as to keep it upright. Work your way to the front doing the poles one at a time. When you have got the front pole done then guy the front clip the clips onto the poles and you will then be able to adjust the tent to get the right shape.

Hope you love your tent. The quality of the Outdoor Revolution tents is brilliant!
