The Internet’s favorite instant set up tent, but smaller, lighter and more compact. Designed for convenience and engineered for year-round durability, the Drone 500 is the tent for any and every outdoor occasion. Thanks to our instant setup technology, the Drone 500 requires zero manual pole assembly with pre-attached poles and a collapsible tent body that pops up in minutes. When we say instant set-up, we truly mean instant. 

Our ultra-fine mesh is designed for optimal ventilation which lets the breeze in and keeps the bugs out, while the included rainfly and weather-resistant fabric ensures the Drone 500 will protect you from the elements. Our terrain skirts are designed for four-season usage, simply pile sand or snow onto the skirts to securely anchor the Drone in place and prevent entry of loose terrain or rain. Thanks to the Drone 500’s dome shape, this tent can comfortably fit up to 8 people, with ample head and floor space for a camping/picnic table, all of your gear (and then some) and a furry friend. With additional accessories such as the Inner Tent and Floor and storage solutions like the Organizer, the Drone 500 is customizable to fit your unique needs, while comfortably accommodating the whole group.

The Drone 500 has been the perfect addition to my car camping setup so I can have a place to cook and relax. Inner tent also fits a full air mattress. Shipping was fast. Slightly regret not getting the larger model but this size works for solo or couple camping.
