One of the best videos of the 490!
Thank you Samantha
This is a great walk around and how to video. A 360 internal view would have been helpful.
Great idea! And thanks for watching.
Thanks for the walk-through. A few questions:
- Thinking about quick single night stops when touring, is it possible to pop the top but leave the front bed pod closed up? Also, to leave the middle bed made up when closing the camper for driving?
- Thinking about packing up in rain, does the canvas of the front bed pod dry while driving? (As do some rooftop tents, with 12 v fans.) If the front pod canvas is packed up wet, does it make other things inside the camper wet? To what degree does the awning over the front pod keep the pod canvas dry? Do you have experience sleeping in the front pod bed during rain?I’m wondering if the windows can remain unzipped (obviously perhaps not in heavy slide-slanting rain).
- Are there any issues with condensation inside the camper overnight?
Many thanks.
Thanks for watching. Yes, for one-nighters, you don't have to set up the front bed section if it's not needed and it doesn't impact on the rest of the camper setup (roof pop up). Yes, the rear main bed can be made before you go, and can travel made, which means no set up for this bed when you arrive. The canvas material used in our campers is water propelling, so therefore does not get saturated, the water beads off. This does not mean that the canvas won't pack up dry if it's subject to rainwater. However, it won't saturate the inside of the camper. There are no fan systems to dry the canvas. Yes, we have experienced setting up, sleeping and packing up in rain. The tropical fly over the front bed section acts as another barrier to keep the front canvas protected, windows can be opened in rain or zipped up halfway in heavy rain. In extreme cold temperatures, there will be some condensation overnight, however this a common amongst most camper trailers, however running a heater does help combat this.
Love it. Really love it. Crap sink!
Thanks for your feedback. The sink is simple, however practical and lightweight
The set up is great in beautiful sunny weather but it would be great to see a set up in the rain and mud would be more interesting. How does the van perform in inclement weather? Do the awnings provide a complete rain protection around the van? Do the awnings dag in the rain? How about wind protection? Please cover this in your next set up video?
All good questions, and whilst we have shown you the full set up on a nice sunny day, remember this is a camper trailer and not a full size caravan, there is some set up and obviously in rain it would be not be as enjoyable. We have set this exact camper up in heavy rain before, and whilst it's not the ideal conditions (and that's camping for you), it's still just as easy. As you can see in the video, there are two 180 degree awnings which are designed to provide substantial coverage, shielding the area around the camper from rain. However, complete rain protection can depend on factors like wind direction and intensity. In heavy rain or strong winds, some water may find its way underneath the awnings, like any awning. As for wind protection, again this depends on the intensity. Our awnings are typically designed to withstand moderate wind speeds without issue. However, in extreme conditions, and with any awning design, it's always wise to exercise caution and potentially retract the awnings to prevent damage.
@@conqueroroffroadaus I thank you for your candid reply. Yes, it would be entirely unreasonable to expect a hybrid van to operate like a caravan but I still find a hybrid much more versatile, both for pragmatic use and towing. Camping is afterall an improvised experience but some vans/trailers have serious limitations even in pleasant weather. Anyway, thank you for your informative, or shall I say, educational videos. Please do show how you and your family would cope with this hybrid in the rain on one of your trips, if circumstances allow?
Are there traditional Chinese subtitles?
Roa no longer sells these. How can I get replacement parts for my 490 if something breaks?
Hi Joshua. Please email our team at: brisbanesales@conqueroroffroad.com.au
@@conqueroroffroadaus I have, I still have not gotten a response yet.
@@joshuahronowski9417 We will follow up and someone will respond
Hello, where are these trailers assembled ?
They are manufactured in China and the final fit-out is completed by our Conqueror team here in Australia.
Unbeatable! How to get one in Europe?
Unfortunately, there are no Conqueror distributors in Europe at this stage
Available in the US when?
To our knowledge the UEV-490 is available in the US, contact ROA - www.rvsofamerica.com/
Too small for an average sized family of 2 Adults and 3 kids. I was expecting more beds.
Unfortunately, we don't offer bedding for more than 4 people in a camper of this size. You might be better looking at the Conqueror UEV-14 which has a king bed + bunk (double on bottom) and sleeps up to 5 people.
Way too much setup time. Just too complicated
Thanks for watching. The 490 setup is around 15minutes which is great for a camper. We also have hybrid options for those that don’t want a camper trailer.
