I can tell you I've done it in 20-25knot winds and it was SKETCHY. The camper was really swaying. I told myself that I would just wait it out next time.
Wondering if anyone knows where FWC is sourcing their new bamboo countertops, or where a similar material can be purchased. Saw the bamboo in a friends new Hawk and it looks great, time for an upgrade.
Just posted my 2019 FWC Hawk, side dinette, WITH UPGRADES! $28,000 located in Fallon, NV (1 hour east of Reno).

I also...
I agree with all of the comments above. It doesn't really make sense to me either. I'm not an engineer, just a dumb pilot and all I know is that I woke up to a basically dry camper and I was really really happy. My hopes were not high, as it was relatively warm and humid conditions, especially...
Returned from my work trip and "finished" the heater. It's usable but not 100% done. It fit on the camper perfectly, no risk of crushing the intake or the exhaust. Phew!
First step was to fill the hole in the external cover. I cut a piece of sheet aluminum, painted it, and epoxy-ed it to the...
I ran the fuel line as close to the camper as possible to make sure there's enough clearance when the camper goes back on the truck. The end goal was to get the fuel line into the propane compartment. If I had gone straight back into the compartment, the fuel line would have come into the...
