I am 5' 8 " and have no problem putting fly on RV4 , just do it before openning
annex , years ago I forgot to do that and I that case I then made a loop on the zipper tag so I could use a tent pole to move the zip along if the awning ws already erected

We leave it on if dry.
We have a piece of cord attached to the zip so can start zip at the end and zip it up with the cord from around the back of the tent
Hope that may help.

A little tip that may help if you are not already doing it with the OZ tent.

Instead of trying to put the tent in the bag when rolled up, put the bag over the tent, flip it and then do the zip up.

It makes it a lot easier. We often see people struggling to put the tent in the bag.

Regards
Rowdy
