    Thanks mate. It's good to see an Aussie site marketing decent tents.

    I’ve got a SC2 all to myself, which is rather palatial to be honest. Have no issues of tent inner flapping around my face. Everyone else has mentioned condensation issues. Experienced similar issues using a F10 Helium UL1. I loved the tent design but the outer fly just let rain penetrate straight through. Would definitely consider the UL 2 version.

    Another SC1 owner here 👍 I waited till the end of the video to comment, and I see that you spotted that the velcro flaps were still raised, blocking the only two air vents on the tent. The flysheet comes right down to the ground on this tent, so it's really important that you ventilate it, otherwise you're sealing yourself into a bit of a greenhouse. The clip near the bottom of the door allows you to clip the bottom of the door to it, and then lower the bottom zip again after you've clipped the door up. This gives you some extra ventilation, and by lowering the bottom zip, you can keep the door taut in order to minimise flapping. Lowering the upper door zip adds even more ventilation (if rain permits!). I thought condensation on the SC1 might be a deal breaker, but I no longer have any concerns about it. Lovely sunny sky you had at the end of the video there!

      Brilliant tips , thanks for those , i usually Hammock camp so getting to grips with this SC1 . Yes the flaps down would have helped lol. I have a new vid up soon with 3 mods i have done for the tent,not cosmetic but good for me . Yes Great skies in the morning my crappy camera does not do it justice but most welcomed. Thanks for dropping bye and the tips.

      @@walkaboutphilpots3795 It can be easy to get disheartened after a less-than-perfect initial experience of something you had really high hopes for! I hope your mods and another camp or two mean that you end up happy with it. If not, there are lots and lots of tents out there to choose from. No condensation issues in a breezy hammock, I don't suppose! I'll keep an eye out for your next one 👍

      I use my SC1 with a Wild Country Utility Porch Tarp which provides a roof over the door and a small exterior storage area.This allows the door to be left partially or even fully open to provide lots of ventilation even whilst it is raining

      So you've to leave zips open for flies n rain to get in?
