Dan Durston X-Mid 1P Tent Fly Accurate Fast Pitch, 1st time every time, no marking or measuring.

Too windy for dialogue today, sorry.

After pegging out the corners of one short edge:
1:28 I have the other two corners held in left hand to form the apex of a triangle.
1:33 As the short edge is doubled, I pinch the center of that edge in my right hand.
1:41 Make both long edges taught so the apex in left hand is on the center line of the tent.
1:42 Align the center of the short edge (right hand) in line with & about 6" beyond the apex.
1:45 Stretch out one of the corners while holding the center of the short edge in place.
1:50 Peg that corner down
2:07 Stretched out and peg down the last corner.
You now have the rectangle pegged out square, time to add the poles.

Note: There is no need for accuracy in that 6", whatever your rough guess is will be just fine.
The correct offset for the 2P is 10" but again, whatever you guess is just fine.
