Hey Daniel, thanks for posting your info on the Condor! Looks great!

When you have time please post up some closer up and larger pics of the unit closed and open. I'm trying to understand how the Condor works - I assume it flips over to larger size once the top cover is tipped/opened?

I'm very curious about the sizes of the unit closed and open and what the actual mattress size is. Any help you can provide will be most appreciated!

Keep us posted on your impressions and use. thanks again! -Dan

Hey, I will get some more images.

If you look at:



That shows a iKamper Skycamp mini, but the setup is the same and the interior looks the same. The top hard cover looks a bit nicer on the iKamper though I will have to say.

Thanks
Daniel

Hey Daniel are you able to close a sleeping bag in there?

 

[DanielM3]

Here are a few answers you asked for.

I am opening it up in the driveway to clean out the slight smell in it.

Close up of exterior, latches

Door / Opening

Interior

Mattress width

Mattress length

I would guess that you could keep some minimal bedding in it but not too much. I'll test with a sleeping bag later

Thanks

That Condor may change my plans a bit. I was planning on the Eagle or the like style Tepui once i figured out my rack. This fitting all on/in the bed (and able to use a tonneau cover!) is intriguing. What’s the set up time? Searched the web and can’t see any available videos of it in action....

Hey, have a look at the iKamper Skycamp mini youtube video I posted. It shows the setup time and this is the same. Super fast. The poles in the awning areas take longer than the tent deployment.

Will do! Thanks. Didn’t realize they were that similar.

What is the height under the tent from the ground with that rack. Can you walk under it when deployed?

It will be roughly the height of the top of your rack to the ground. I think mine is roughly 5ft

Will love to know if a sleeping bag or like blanket could be left in there like it could in most of Roofnests other offerings...looking forward to the answer. I noticed in the video you posted that the reviewer said it was a very tight fit, but I'm wondering if that is only due to his second layering of mattress foam....

A few questions if you don't mind:

• Up until the Condor (and seeing that short rack of yours that allows the tonneau cover) I was sold on the Eagle...how's the stability of the flip out piece? I'm guessing its engineered right, as many RTT use that design, but Ive never experienced it....

• Condor has two side windows with awnings...does the window closest to cab function with that low rise rack?

• I see you have what looks like the roll-up tonneau cover...can you confirm that it does in fact still function?

• One last (at least for now) question: how's the water seal looking on the skylight? In a place that rains a lot (so my camping will be moist), I like the idea of the solid roof so I only have to worry about the sides....

Seriously, thanks for taking the time to address any of these questions...I appreciate it!

Great pictures and information! Thanks for the post. How easy is it to roll and unroll the tonneau cover when fully installed? Also, any vision out of the rear view at that height, or would raising it 4- 6 inches give more sight? I already ordered (and received today) the condor tent and was going to make my final decision on a rack after making some measurements.

Maybe I totally missed it on you website, but what mattress thickness comes with your tent? Condensation mat?

Hey, the mattress thickness is 2". Unlike other "foam" mattresses, we use high density foam. It recovers quickly and helps fight the (sagging) that generally causes sore spots.

We don't include a condensation mat specifically but the insulation that goes under the mattress can be used for that purpose.

Thanks for asking.

Looks interesting the more i look at this fold out style...notice “free shipping” to continental US....do you actually mean continental, or do you mean contiguous? On far too many occasions I have to explain to companies, that yes, Alaska is part of the US and in fact, continental. If not, what would shipping to AK actually cost (Roofnest for example proudly brags $350 to Alaska, but in actuality was going to be almost $1200 for me).

Inquiring minds.....
