We will be making a series of videos in the next coming weeks, about tips and tricks for setup and was wondering if there is any topics in particular you would like to see covered. These will be brief videos more specific to a specific topic.

This may seem weird, but video of someone else entering/exiting/using the shelter so I can get a better feel for size.

I agree that it would be useful to show the different LBO setups, including setting-up the Base only as a tarp. Packed size of the different LBO options would be good as well.

Additional ideas:
- LBO with stove, to give an idea of clearance from the tent walls.

- Nest setup: when setting-up the LBO first, then installing the Nest inside, the Nest corners tend to sag. I can get it setup right after some adjustment, but it takes a bit too much time. Any tips to decrease setup time would be appreciated.

Would like to see video of different stake styles showing what stakes to use for different terrain. Sand, gravel, dirt, snow, rocks etc. Also be nice to put supplier links in the video making purchasing easier and quicker.

Thanks for the feedback.

Here is a fairly inclusive Lil Bug Out Video for setup


Will work on getting some of the other videos together

Would love to see video of a 6man and 8man together. I realize the dimensions are clearly posted in their descriptions, but there is something comforting about seeing before buying.

Thanks

How about some setup tips for the BCS2. In particular how to get the side and back walls taut without wrinkling from the guyout locations. Also how to maximize interior room in relation to pole height. Thanks for any help you can give us.
