Supertramp Flagship LT pop-up slide-in pickup camper

Camper Van Expo (Bozeman, MT locale) complete. Was fun hanging out in the booth on Sunday and chatting campers and pickups with folks. Was so busy chatting and looking around the show I almost forgot to click a few pics, but grabbed these right as the show closed.

Guy in that first pic looks like he is ready to seriously mess someone up. Was he the ST guard? 😉

Looks like I great time! I just got finished touring the KY truck plant with the Tremor forum guys. Man what an experience that place is! 170+ acres under one roof ! Unbelievable and man did Ford treat us nice!

Jerod is the production manager. Keeps the production line moving...or else! Ha. Super nice guy and he and Kelsey are at most of the shows. Hope their Overland Expo Mountain West show went well this last weekend. Two shows back to back is a lot. At least the Mountain West Overland Expo is local.

SuperTramp just sent out a recall for all Flagship LT campers about the 30-amp actuator breakers. From the email: "We advise that customers turn off all four 30-amp actuator breakers, located in the top left of the camper’s electrical box, any time the camper’s roof lifting system is not being used. This includes storage, traveling and camping in either the fully up or fully down position.".

They said they're working with Linak on a temp fix, and then a long term fix.

Thanks for posting @roamie. It's great to see STC addressing this LINAK actuator issue. These are top of the line actuators but things happen. Happy that LINAK is quickly working with STC to address. I feel for STC having to deal with this LINAK issue, but STC stepped up fast and worked this as a top priority.

This is a two-part solution.
The first fix is not a temporary fix, but rather a long term fix that addresses possible water intrusion past the actuator-plug o-ring and onto the actuator circuit board which could trigger actuator movement on their own. This is fix is only needed on the two rear, exterior actuators. If you are getting extensive rain/moisture on and in the interior actuators, then you have bigger problems to worry about! Ha.

The second part of the overall fix is the installation of a timed relay which will cut all power to the actuators ten seconds after they come to rest in either direction. That is similar to turning off all the breaks but is done automatically. When it's time to put the top up or down, there will be an additional three second delay, once the actuator button is pushed, for the relay to energize and actuators to start moving. But, no need for operator to flip any additional switches, breakers, etc. Just use the actuator buttons as usual and the relay will connect power "per use".

For now, everybody please keep those four actuator breakers off (open circuit) until you get both solutions in place. Thankfully the breakers are easy to access and so easy to position on (closed circuit), when roof actuation is needed, then turn the breakers off (open circuit) when complete.

So I just got home from a nice trip to Kentucky and happened to run into another ST owner! @Vsgfoster stopped by to say hello while I was gassing up with some buddies on the Tremor forum. Super cool guy and it was totally cool of him to swing over and say hello for a few mins. @Chadx I believe he said his camper is about 1 number off from yours.

Nice! Yep, Vent is on the thread hear. He picked up his #94 the week before us and then they went on a road trip. Missed 'im...by tttthhat much. 🤏
Some have said they haven't ever seen another STC in the wild. We must frequent places, or just live, where STC owner congregate as we have seen a dozen or so different rigs on the road, camping, etc. over the last year. And since they surpassed 180 Flagship LT deliveries now, siting should continue to grow. Now, spotting an HT or Megatron in the wild will be fairly rare for a while. I've seen neither, but I know that one Canadian couple stayed very close to us (in an area I thought was kind of a secret, but not so much anymore with all the apps) on there way north from taking their HT delivery.
