So whilst I didn’t buy the Octans, a few members of the folks I hang around with have one (although I’m not certain how active they are on forums). As such I see the Octans often enough to make some high level comments on it.
The one I demo-ed (which is the one in my YouTube) was pre-prod (pretty much final) of which I set up my Tak µ250CRS/Vixen AXD and threw my swag and slept in it for the night. It’s got a top cover which can be used during the day to completely block out the sunlight. And the material is naturally durable.
It can be set up by 1 person but 2 ppl would be quicker naturally. I made a quick timelapse of the setup :-

My gazebo setup definitely wouldn’t (and didn’t, in a Dec trip late last year) in strong winds the way the other Octans did.
