G'day Joe,

Yes, it would be a good idea to season these too as they are also made of Poly-Cotton Canvas. This enables the stitching holes to shrink around the tread of the stitch lines and the cotton in the canvas to swell. You can do this the same way you would season a tent, let the canvas dry completely before repeating this two times.

G'day Ross,

It won't I'm sorry.  The RV1 was discontinued several years ago, and subsequently, the RV1 accessories sold out Australia wide pretty quickly after that.   There's no RV1 compatible accessories left in circulation, unless you can find something second-hand.
The only other thing I can suggest is potentially heading to your local canvas and awning specialist & getting some custom panels made up.

G'day Craig,

Yep, absolutely.  The Tagalong tent shouldn't affect any of the side attachments.
It should give you a nice little setup.
Hope that helps!

These will fit the side of both the RV2 and RV5 awnings, Jenny. Once they are in place you can join two RV tents together with an Awning Connector (https://www.snowys.com.au/rv-awning-connectors), but these work best with two tents of the same dimensions. You can still join your RV2 with your RV5 but given the width difference, you will only be able to cover the gap between the tents on one side, and you will have a bit of loose fabric hanging in area where there is the difference in width. See the video on the page linked in my answer for more context. ~ Ben

G'day Declan,

No, these panels are for use with the standard RV range...if you want panels for your RV5 Plus, head to the RV Plus Peaked Side Panels.
Hope that helps!

G'day Craig,

The side panels can only be attached to one tent at a time, so my suggestion would be to leave the front awning of one RV5 rolled up and secured above the door, then extending the awning on the other and attaching the side panels. This will leave a small gap between the tent and awning, however, given you'll be under a large tarp this shouldn't cause any water leakage issues. 

G'day Thao,

The RV Deluxe Side Panels aren't compatible with the RX-5. The RX models are only designed to be used with the supplied panel system.

G'day Den,

Great question mate!  We've had loads of feedback on these panels and everyone seems really impressed with them, many of whom have left reviews detailing adverse weather conditions.  In regards to strong winds, we've had one customer use an additional cross spreader bar to add extra stability and then take the extra step of adding extra spreader bars from the centre pole of the side panel to the front pole.  They've reported that this set -up made the panels (and tent) 'as good as you could get in strong winds'.  

If you want to explore this idea, here's the link to our range of spreader poles and clips etc.

Cheers :)

G'day Den,

I've just measured one of the Rv Deluxe Side Panels and they are 175cm from tent attachment to pole attachment. 

G'day James,

The poles that come with the Oztent RV Deluxe Side Panels for the RV4 are the 220cm Oztent Alloy Poles. 

G'day Tim,

The Oztent RV Side Panels are waterproof, but I wouldn't back them to keep water from seeping through at the bottom even if pegged down. Unfortunately, pegging the side panel won't create a clean seal between the panel and the ground.

G'day Tony,

I’ve just spoken with Oztent, and they’ve said that you attach the Side Awning first to the tent awning - the Side Awning itself has two zippers so you can zip the Deluxe Side Panel onto the Side Awning to use both at the same time. 

I hope that properly answered the question this time, just let us know if you have any other queries.
