Product Information
Full details
The Vango F10 Radon UL 2 is a lightweight, semi-freestanding two-person tent designed for backpackers and mountain adventurers who prioritize weight efficiency without sacrificing structural integrity. Its key benefit is the innovative Axial hub pole system paired with the TXS stability system, providing rapid setup and high wind resistance in a compact 1.6kg trail-weight package. While it offers excellent versatility, users should note that as an inner-first pitching tent, it requires careful handling during setup in heavy rain to keep the interior dry.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the weight of the tent?
The total weight is 1.8kg, with a trail weight (excluding unnecessary packaging) of 1.6kg.
Can I pitch this tent without the flysheet?
Yes, the inner-first design allows you to pitch the mesh inner alone, which is ideal for hot, dry weather.
Is this tent fully freestanding?
It is semi-freestanding. While it holds its shape well, it requires pegging of the corners to reach its full structural stability.
How do I use a walking pole for extra stability?
Insert the handle or tip (as specified by the sleeve design) of your trekking pole into the dedicated sleeve located on the brow pole section.
Is the groundsheet waterproof?
The tent features a robust bathtub groundsheet designed to keep water out during wet conditions.
What should I do if the fabric gets a small tear?
Use a specialized tent repair patch or high-quality seam sealant tape meant for nylon fabrics to mend small rips immediately.
Troubleshooting
Pole hub is sticking or difficult to connect
Ensure all pole sections are fully seated into the hub. Clear any debris or sand that may have entered the joints.
Flysheet appears saggy after setup
Tighten the camming clips at the corners and adjust the guylines to maintain tension across the surface.
Condensation inside the inner tent
Ensure the vents are fully open and check that the flysheet is properly tensioned to maintain airflow between the layers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Setup: Assemble the main hub pole structure first. Attach the inner tent clips to the poles. If conditions are windy, cross the internal guylines tightly. Finally, drape and clip the flysheet over the frame using the camming clips.
- Compatibility: The tent is designed for use with standard trekking poles, which can be utilized as a structural aid. Ensure your pegs are appropriate for the ground type (soft soil vs. rocky terrain).
- Care: Always dry the tent thoroughly before storing it in its bag to prevent mildew. Avoid over-tightening the guylines, as this can stress the seams. Clean the nylon fabric with a soft sponge and mild soap; avoid harsh detergents or washing machines.
